Help Send Our Youth to New Orleans

Help send our Youth to New Orleans in two special ways!

In Jackson Square, the crossroads of New Orleans’ French Quarter, there will be a big kettle to fill with quarters. Our goal as an ELCA Youth Gathering is a ONE MILLION DOLLAR offering to combat hunger. That equals $30 per youth attendee. Thank you for your gifts this Sunday!

Could you be a prayer partner for one of our youth (Nylan Hynek, Tom Dereszynski, Ariel Watson, Brittney Dolan, Elise Hynek, and Brittany Taylor)? We ask for members to send the group, along with adult leaders Jessica Zinniel and Pastor Jolivette, with daily prayers. Put your name and prayer partner on a pew card on Sunday, and remember to read our blog, which will be updated daily on our website. Thank you!

Gospel According to The Chronicles of Narnia in July

Come immerse yourself in a world of mythical creatures, talking beavers and an evil White Witch that kept her world in a perpetual winter while discovering the basic concepts of Christianity: sin, betrayal, sacrifice, forgiveness, redemption, unity, and the battle of good versus evil.

Sundays in July after worship in the Gathering Room.

Through their adventures children will be challenged to TRUST in God’s Plans, UNITE with God’s People, TRAIN for God’s Service, FOLLOW in God’s Path and LEAD Others to God’s Promises! We will have a great time with lively songs, hilarious skits, creative crafts, exciting games, Bible stories and tasty snacks – all of the things that make Vacation Bible School so much fun for children. On top of that, we will be helping children learn about how to have courage to serve God as His special agents. SonForce Kids can be an inspirational and educational adventure for the entire family.
