Most people spend more time in planning their yearly vacation as compared to the time used for planing or reviewing their estate plan. Providing and protecting for spouse and other family members is important for all ages. LCEF has a user-friendly, free resource to assist you and your family. To begin your planning today, call Diana Raasch 414-464-8100, ext. 25 or click here to download the LCEF christian Wills Guide.
Please feel free to use and share any of the information in this newsletter with your family, friends, and of course your congregation. I welcome your calls and emails.
Yours in Christ,

Now Presenting:
A New Address for Fun & Stewardship
|
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Matthew 19:14
Check out the NEW Young Investors (Y.I.) Club Online Activity Center at yiclub.lcef.org for:
- Games!
- Bible Stories!

- Videos!
- Service Project Ideas!
- Crafts and Recipes!
Each group "Little Lambs, Mission Builders and World Changers" has its own area on the site with age-appropriate activities. There are interactive games, coloring pages, Bible stories and devotions, videos, and, for older members, news stories and links to servant events and projects. New items will be added regularly to keep young ones engaged and entertained!
This website will reinforce Bible lessons, enhance understanding of stewardship concepts and supplement studies in math, English, history and personal finance in a fun and meaningful manner. We want each Y.I. Club member to know and understand Jesus' love and the fact that their investment is helping others learn about Jesus as well.

Vision Path: Right Questions are Key!
|
As their 150th anniversary drew near, St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, members turned to LCEF's VisionPath team to clarify how best to use their resources and reach out in a strong ministry direction.
Such an anniversary tradition is nothing new for St. Paul's. It was during its 125th year that members started Kinder Place, an early childhood ministry-now a strong feeder for the church's day school.
Congregants expressed a variety of ideas, and the VisionPath process-created by LCEF Sr. Vice President Max Biesenthal and facilitated by the Rev. Dr. John Sproul, Western Region vice president-sharpened their focus. Asking the right questions is key, Sproul says.
