Lay Leader Extravaganza!

March 27, 2010

This congregational resource event centers on the theme: "The Marks of Discipleship." You can expect a day filled with mission and ministry, practical information, and resources galore! 

The keynote presenter is Pastor Stephen Bouman, who most recently served as bishop to the Metropolitan New York Synod. He was elected Nov. 11 by the ELCA Church Council to a four-year appointment as executive director of ELCA Evangelical Outreach and Congregational Mission (EOCM) beginning Jan. 1, 2008. Presiding Bishop Mark Hanson describes Bouman: "He has a passion to proclaim Christ, make disciples and build up the church for the sake of the world." 

Registration fee for this day-long event is $20 per person or $15 each for groups of four or more. Click here for a registration brochure

Earthquake in Haiti  

The outpouring of gifts to ELCA Disaster Response continues to bring comfort to the people of Haiti. Immediately following the earthquake, your gifts helped provide emergency food and medical supplies through community-based ELCA Disaster Response partners. Within days, your gifts helped bring water purification systems and build temproary shelters for 10,000 people. As of January 30, financial gifts from congregations and members to the ELCA have exceeded $2.7 million.

Though media attention will fade, we know that the need will be great in Haiti for many years to come. You are needed to provide ongoing care. Please continue to visit www.elca.org/disaster for  worship resources, bulletin inserts and updated information about the ELCA response. One hundred percent of your gifts designated for Haiti Earthquake Relief will be used for this response effort. To give today, go online (www.elca.org/haitiearthquake) or call 800-638-3522.

Thank you for your generous gifts and for holding the people of Haiti in your prayers.
