CAMP MINNEBOJI – June 22-28, 2008! “Don’t Forget His Lyrics” is the theme of Camp Minneboji this summer (June 22-28). God’s people have been remembering the great deeds of God through Psalms, hymns, and songs for centuries. Our Bible studies and other aspects of camp will be built on this theme, as the campers will especially be led by way of the Psalms to remember what God has done for them through Jesus. Camp Minneboji is for those who are currently in grades 4 through 9. The camp, located at Camp Okoboji in northwest Iowa, features Bible study, mission presentations, crafts, music time, sports and recreation. Cost is $225 for 4th-8th graders and $255 for 9th graders. Camp registration booklets will be mailed directly to last year’s campers and in bulk to the congregations by April 1. For more information, check out the camp’s Website: www.minneboji.com, or contact the Camp Dean, Rev. Scott Sailer (scottsailer@aol.com, 605/332-3401).
Large Print Bulletins are available – Let pastor know if you wanted one and they ran out.
Life Quote for Easter: "We can face the end of life with confidence because Jesus Christ has defeated the enemy of death. For the believer in Christ, the Savior of the world, it is death with a difference. The cross promises what no science or medicine can: immortality . . . (2 Timothy 1:10) . . . Through the cross and Christ’s resurrection comes new life, eternal life, life with Christ without end." Rev. Dr. Eugene Boe, Academic Dean, Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology, Lutheran Brethren Seminary. A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life / www.lutheransforlife.org / 888-364-LIFE
Stewardship for Easter: 1 Corinthians 15:1-11: St. Paul witnessed to the truth that the risen Jesus was the power in his life and therefore he was renewed to be a good steward of the Gospel. We believers in Christ and His resurrection are also moved to be good stewards, not just of our money, time and talents, but also with our sharing of the Gospel of salvation.
