Summer Youth Trip 2022 Update

/ pastorhh

The ELCA Youth Gathering was put on hold due to continued pandemic uncertainty just a couple weeks ago, but it will return in 2024. Your Youth Board quickly regrouped, and will be offering the following trip–so please note, the registration window is brief.

PS Not in 7th grade yet? We enjoy a strong partnership with Good Earth Village, and traditional summer camp programming is BACK! Individuals can register for programming for one day, a half-week, or full week, and GEV staff will here at church on Sunday, March 20 to visit, share, and answer your questions.

Education Programming Resumes Feb 16 & 20

We look forward to seeing you soon. Please return only when you are symptom-free (any illness) and not under quarantine. Families/individuals who are ill and/or under restrictions are automatically excused. Be in touch if you have any questions, or wish to report an extended absence.

With prayers and love for each of you, Pastors Heidi Heimgartner & Mike Walerius & Melissa Stoen, Director of Children’s Ministry
