This is a link for how the church members can assist with our youth’s efforts in New Orleans this July. Our service area is housing, so we are hoping to support the ELCA National Youth Gathering’s efforts in housing by setting a goal of 25 units of each of the two areas, either TOOLS or HOUSEHOLD MAINTENANCE. Church families can go to this link and purchase 1 or more units of either the tools ($20 per unit) or Household Maintenance ($10 per unit). Our goal is 25 units each for a total of 50 units. The “purchase” of these items will defray the cost to the national youth gathering for rebuilding New Orleans

Hello from Moorhead Minnesota! All 30 of us have been here for a couple of days now and are having an awesome time serving the people in this community affected by the flood. I don’t want to go into a lot of detail right now, but so far we’ve worked at 4 sites; 3 of them removing sandbag dikes and hauling them away, and at one house we helped clean out a basement that had flooded. All the people we’ve worked with have been very appreciative of our efforts, and it’s great to get a chance to hear their stories. We’ve also spent some time with some of the high school youth here at Trinity Lutheran, who will also be going to the National Youth Gathering in July, enjoyed dinner with some families from the church and visited Concordia College and the World Wide Headquarters of Old Lutheran.
We’ve been taking lost of pictures, which are now up on our photo site. I also encourage you to check out the “Map This” feature (a button in the upper right) which will show where they were taken as well. You can get to it by browsing through the photo site at http://bethelcupertino.smugmug.com/ or by this direct link to the gallery: http://bethelcupertino.smugmug.com/gallery/7900997_vfr65/1/512434480_67mfv
