“Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.” -Psalm 25: 4-5
Recently, we celebrated a wonderful week of Camp ELC! We had a great week and were truly blessed with a beautiful evening for our closing program at Brigham Park! Thank you to all of our youth and adults who participated, helped as teachers and shepherds, and who were involved with planning and leading. A special thanks to Cyndy and Neil Densmore and family for their leadership and, once again, hosting our Sugar Creek Counselors in their home.
It’s hard to believe that summer has come and almost gone. Soon we will be entering into the school year and the season of autumn. Our education year also begins with Sunday school and Confirmation classes. We look forward to another great year, and I want to say thanks for all who share time and gifts in these ministries as design team leaders, teachers, shepherds and Confirmation guides. Please contact me or the office if you would like to be involved in one of these areas of ministry.
Here are a couple of upcoming dates to put on your calendars at home:
Sunday school: Classes begin on Sunday, September 14 from 9:30-10:20 a.m.
Confirmation (Wednesdays):
- September 10 from 6:30-8:00 p.m. We will have a potluck and fellowship meeting for all Confirmation youth (7th-10th Grade) and parents.
- September 17: Confirmation Guide Training from 7:00-8:00 p.m.
- September 24: Confirmation Classes Begin from 7:00-8:30 p.m.

We will continue to meet on the 2nd and 4th Sunday evenings of the month from 7:00-8:30 p.m. at the Church House. Our next meeting is Sunday, September 14 at 7:00 p.m.
Peace and Joy in Christ,
