IDE LLL




Sometimes The Idea Of Change Hurts Like Pulling Teeth

But we are ready -The executive Board of Iowa East Lutheran Laymen’s League met Saturday August 6 and the main topic was the - rebuilding of our Zone leadership. IDE Intl. LLL has five Zones which encompasses 2 or 3 LCMS circuits. It is through these Zone leaders, that each member /donor has representation within the League structure. The members came prepared to announce a new program titled: “On The Road Again” And they would like to visit your congregation in the near future. The main focus of the League is helping congregations in their evangelism efforts and supporting the Lutheran Hour. The new focus is to bring some Workshops to a central zone church, and explain the benefits of having a LHM Ambassador in your congregation.

The board would also like to remind you of the new family Regional Outreach Conferences started this year. The next ROC will be in St. Charles, Illinois (Chicago) . Everyone is invited, say’s our information, and your family may use free time to enjoy the evening at the resort. RESORT - FAMILY - Do you see a picture coming together here? That’s September 9- 10. Registration at 4:00 PM  Friday till 7:30 PM Saturday. The family is then free to go home, or spend Sunday in the Chicago area. Here is a new melding of LCMS and LHM speakers who’s main focus is to encourage or explain to LCMS members how to reach those neighbors looking for a church home and why you are LCMS Lutheran.
