Hello Neighbors!
Last summer First Lutheran Church of the Trinity was blessed to be able to send two students to summer camp at Lutherdale Bible Camp in Wisconsin. Kids that might not have otherwise gone to camp were swimming, canoeing and even riding a zip line. It was really cool!
This summer we have eight kids who want to go. Over the last year these kids have created lasting friendships over weekly service, fundraising and fellowship activities at the church. This camp experience could provide life changing experience for these city kids who might not otherwise get the chance to experience camp.
Can you help us?
During the months of May and June we will be holding basket raffles and the campers will be selling lemonade in addition to other fundraising efforts throughout the summer. We are also reaching out to local businesses. Our hope is to raise $4000 in order to cover camp costs for 8 kids.
Thank you for helping to make our community a great place and your help in this effort.
In All Thanksgiving,
Rene Paquin
Community Engagement Coordinator
