On May 7-8 an Evaluation Team from NAMB conducted interviews with 12 of our pastors and other church leaders. This was a productive time for all of us and our Evaluation Team will be meeting with the NAMB team leader again in June to evaluate the findings.
Please pray that we will be able to use all of this to be more effective in our work in the LLBA.
Thanks, everyone for your help and participation.
A special thanks goes to Donna who helped with all of the coordination!

You can now download our latest newsletter and camp forms from our website. Go to "Info Center" at the top and click on the item of interest. We are still expermimenting with this. If you have ideas on how to make these more accessible, please let us know.

Imagine less kids impacted God's message because we can't find volunteers for Children and Youth Camps?
We MUST have 2 leaders per cabin...or we will have to turn some away!
Would you pray about your part?
WE NEED TO KNOW IF YOU WILL SERVE BY THE END OF MAY...

At our last Executive Board Meeting, the Board voted to begin working with the Friendship Ministry Center in Des Moines. It was agreed that this is where we want to start, and then pursue other opportunites as we feel needed. We have contacted the Ministry Center and are waiting for a response as to how is the best way to be involved. We will keep you informed of our progress.
