Although we see state mandates lifted by our local government we as a community control our destiny. As I would love to begin meeting again in person as soon as possible, a spirit of caution is in order and many aspects have to be evaluated. With that being said we still have some exciting things coming up this month. First, we will begin the planning of the 2022 ELCA Youth Gathering trip. This is guaranteed to be an amazing experience for our youth and I am very excited to begin the planning! WLLC Youth Faith Lens videos posted on our YouTube channel. There was a two week break due to Father’s Day and the heat wave but this will resume this Sunday the 4th. In addition, we will begin a virtual Mad Lib with the youth via text message. For this I will be sending out what types of words are needed and those who respond will be entered into a drawing for cool prizes at the end of each mad lib. Once the words have been gathered I will read it and post it on our YouTube channel, so if you have not already done so, subscribe and click the bell for all notifications so you don’t miss it! Outreach for July : Going Home II Michael Fesser, the founder of Going Home II, will be featured in our worship service on Sunday, July 25. Learn more about his faith and ministry!
