took first place.

SALE
Camp
Luther and Faith PTF are allowing the teens to run our spring parking lot
sale, which is now scheduled for Saturday, May 24th due to a
conflict with our summer construction plans for the facility. Faith teens are asking for your donations
to help them raise funds to help cover the cost of their attendance at the WELS
International Youth Rally in June!
They are willing to
pick up your gently used items as donations for the sale. Do you have junk to
get rid of? They will take that too and gladly haul it away for a free-will
donation. They may even be able to arrange some spring cleaning help for you. Contact Mr. Schneck
at 331-7761 and he will arrange for some delightful and energetic teens to
serve you.
Do you use a Fred
Meyer card? Your purchases can help earn money for our school. Thirteen families
have already raised $362 for our school! If you would like to join them, please
