Get your youth signed up for camp!
Our Synod's Bible Camps
Did you know that most camps encourage pastors and youth directors (paid and volunteer) to attend camp with their youth? Spending even one day at camp with kids is equivalent to the work you would do in a month at home...don't miss this great opportunity!
Do you have favorite resources you'd like to share? Please send me an email and I'll include them soon.

Greetings!
"The water that I give will become in them a spring of water gushing up to eternal life." John 4:14
I participated in our synod assembly this past weekend and I was struck by all the people giving and living their lives in grateful response to Christ's forgiveness and love. I see God's love and work bubbling and gushing up all over the place. What a church we are a part of!
In Christ, Sarah Hausken, SW MN Synod Youth Ministry Coordinator
