Today we welcome a group of six students from Luther Prep School (www.lps.wels.net) and their chaperons to the island of Hispaniola. They are here through Project Timothy, a program of our synod prep schools to expose high school students who have already expressed interest in entering the public ministry to ministry opportunities in home and world missions.
They will be conducting VBS style classes in a number of different areas, helping our local congregations make contact with children and parents in their area. Classes start next week, so I should have plenty of pictures for the updates next week! We pray for the Lord's blessings on their efforts to share the saving gospel with Jesus' little lambs.
On a side note: Today is also the official beginning of hurricane season in the Caribbean, which goes until November 1. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (www.noaa.gov) predicts 13-17 named storms, 7-10 hurricanes, and 3-5 *major* hurricanes this year. Two years ago, their predictions were low, last year they were high, but usually they are pretty close.
Please join us in asking the Lord for favorable weather and his protection this hurricane season.
The Lord bless you with his Peace,
NW
