It’s LYO Leadership Camp week at Camp Vermilion! Full days, new friends, and growing in faith while expanding our leadership skills.

More pictures to come… But for now - a photo of the ideas our LYO youth came up with for how their congregations, our synod, and they as leaders can more fully welcome and include the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC siblings among us. Thank you to Pastor Christina Johnson for facilitating our conversation on behalf the NEMN Synod Welcome & Reconciling Team. Her words and invitation were powerful!

Wow! At this weekend's Emmaus Fund Gala we far surpassed our $35,000 total from last year. THANK YOU to all of those who donated, shared, and celebrated with us in this milestone. We look forward to announcing our spring micro-grants in the coming weeks. May the Holy Spirit continue to grow this ministry, as God's people are nourished in faith.
