On Sunday, St. James will be sharing Sending Prayers with the group of youth and adults heading to the ELCA Youth Gathering in Houston. You are invited to come to worship and participate in this sending.

To say that I'm excited about going with the group would be a gross understatement. These events are formative and memorable. Each one has unique experiences. This will be my fourth ELCA Youth Gathering - but no two are alike.

I am grateful for the youth and adults that will fill WANDA (the church van) as we make our journey south.

So that you can join in the fun, I will be posting pictures and updates from the adventure to the church website. Be sure to check all of next week.

Look forward to seeing you in worship - either on Sunday or on Wednesday night.

in Christ,

Pastor Walt
