Youth Mission Trip
The First Lutheran Youth Group went on a mission trip to Cairo, Illinois the week of July 4-9 through Youthworks. The youth had a great time getting to know each other better, learning more about themselves, and most importantly becoming closer to God. The youth entered Cairo, Illinois with open hearts and a readiness to serve. While the youth went on the trip with the intent to help the people of Cairo, it didn't take long for the youth (and adult leaders) to realize that they were the ones being helped. The theme for the week was based off the Bible verse “Jesus must become greater; I must become less” (John 3:30).

The youth are already getting excited about next year’s mission trip and are working on ways to bring what they learned on the mission trip back home.
Thank you to all who supported this mission trip, prayerfully and financially, we could not have done it without you! Stay tuned for more information about the mission trip in Septembers newsletter.
