ELCA Malaria Campaign

Thanks-And Keep Up the Good Work!

 

Our participation in the ELCA Malaria Campaign has been very successful to date. In fact, we have already surpassed our $2500 goal!  

 

Through the campaign, the ELCA is joining hands with Lutheran church bodies in Africa and becoming part of a historic global movement to say "Enough is enough!" No child (or other person) should die of a disease that is preventable and treatable. Therefore, the ELCA has committed to raising $15 million to help make malaria history. The mission is to teach people to recognize the symptoms of malaria, promote prevention, and provide treatment and prevention resources.

 

Thanks!If you have not yet contributed to this life-saving effort, please prayerfully consider doing so-perhaps one mosquito net for each member of your family.

 

If you have made a contribution, please consider continuing to donate throughout the three-year campaign; envelopes will soon be available.

 

As of this week, the ELCA has raised over $3,000,000 for this vital effort, with another $500,000 in future commitments!  Great to be a part of this!  Watch the ELCA Malaria Campaign Video

Vision Youth Ministry

Summer is here and we will be having a kick-off for all youth activities and Sunday school meeting this Sunday 09:45. All upcoming 6th graders are invited too!  Please make every effort to attend so we can see the strength of the teen presence in RLC. The newly formed youth committee will be on hand too!

 

This summer we will be starting with a study of the Books of Acts (Acts of the Holy Spirit through the believers). We will progress to spiritual gifts to be identified and given away in service too!

 

We will also be asking for input on summer activities, day trips etc.  GET READY FOR VISION YOUTH MINISTRY TO BLOOM AND MAKE ROOM ON YOUR CALENDARS FOR RLC YOUTH.....AMEN

 

 

Blessings,

 

Dave

luther"...Faith is God's work in us, that changes us and gives new birth from God (John 1:13)... Yes, it is a living, creative, active and powerful thing, this faith. Faith cannot help doing good works constantly. It doesn't stop to ask if good works ought to be done, but before anyone asks, it already has done them and continues to do them without ceasing."
