Shepherd's Canyon Retreat Ministry
Lutheran Braille Workers
Pictured to the left, is Rachel Potts from Lutheran Braille Workers and VP of Gospel Outreach Toni Champlin.
It was a pleasure to meet Rachel face to face at the National Convention and be able to hand her the grant funds of $1500 to her personally rather than just sending it in the mail.
The goal of this grant is to produce Braille Bibles and Christian materials at our Ministry Production Center located in Idaho Falls. Specialized large print Bibles and Christian prison Bible study materials in both English and Spanish will be produced and distributed in Idaho, Utah and throughout the United States. Rachel expressed that these materials are free to people that are blind and visually impaired; so please contact LBW for people who have these needs.
Once again, your prayers are needed for this special ministry, for Jesus comes alive amid visual darkness with these rare and amazing materials!

Forged by Fire
Pictured to the right, Pastor Paul, Pres. Terri and VP of Gospel Outreach Toni Champlin at the National Convention. We had just sent him and his mission team, Forged by Fire, the mission funds of $3500. He emailed me and was very grateful to receive the funds and requested that we meet at the National Convention and take pictures. We are standing at the back end of the trailer that they use to cook and provide a warm meal for people who have just experienced a natural disaster such as a storm, hurricane, tornado or flooding. Pastor Paul Ernewein and his team had just been to St Louis, MO giving out warm meals, bonding in prayer and sharing devotions with the families who had just experienced devastation from a tornado that swept through. Pastor explained that they can share 1500-3000 meals/day with their trailer setup.
Their next endeavor is to get another mobile trailer that is set up with washers and dryers. Pastor relates that the basic needs for victims are food, a shower and clean clothes. This new trailer would help give these sorrowful people some relief and comfort.
The LWML has been able to help financially with this much needed ministry with our Mighty Mites. Continue to pray for this much needed outreach amongst disaster.

Sowing in our School - Hope Lutheran
Dear Utah/Idaho LWML Ladies,
Thanks so much for fulfilling our grant request to Sow Seeds in our School! At Hope Lutheran Classical Academy we are not only teaching kids how to think, we are also teaching them the wonderful truths of God's Work and his Love in creation and in Jesus! You helped us do that this year by providing funds for us to give story bibles to our Early Childhood graduates. And Bibles to our 6th grade graduates. With your help we were able to give out over a dozen story book bibles to our little lambs here at Hope. As well as (pictured) three Bibles to our graduating 6th graders. We pray God would bless the Word - it does not return empty! We, additionally, have funds left over to do the same thing for the coming years. Thanks again and God's richest blessings on your ministry.
