On Eagle's Wings

 

   June 11, 12, 13, 2010

 

 

Convention 2010 has ended, with the final exhortation:

 "TIME TO GO!!!"

We return to the Mission Field just as Jesus sent out

 the 12 and the 72 - going with God, doing His work together.

 

See the Conventions webpage for highlights and pictures

 of this wonderful convention!

 

 

 

***URGENT***

We want our Convention 2010 Mission Faire items to get to the people they have been created/gathered for! This can only happen if we have the necessary postage or transportation to the Midwest. Please contact Terry Putnam if your society can offset some of the postage or if you know of anyone with space on a truck going to the Midwest, where the items will be loaded on a container and delivered.

....a word from our President...

   

Time to go…Oregon FACE of LWML!!!

Proclaiming our God, expressing our trust and engaging our service!!

 

Yes!! By God’s Grace we met our convention goal at our 2010 OR District LWML Convention at Eagle Crest on June 11-13…. To be assured that our Lord is the everlasting God Creator who renews our strength and lifts us on wings like eagles to do His will to His glory.

There were inspiring worship services led by our Proclaimer, Rev. Paul Linnemann, our Northwest District President, assisted by OR LWML District Counselor, Rev. Daniel Faragalli, host congregation pastors, Rev. Bob Luinstra and Rev. David Carnahan and numerous other LCMS Pastors from around Oregon which included many encouragements from God’s Word.

Two dynamic Bible Studies presented by Rev. Patrick Lovejoy from St. Matthew, Port Angeles, WA challenged and inspired us also as we studied Isaiah 40.

The Mission Fair supplied abundant opportunities to carry out our LWML pledge of willing service as we put to use our hands and feet in His service. What a joy to see that enormous room bustling with committed and consecrated women!

And that wasn’t all!! Our joy continued throughout the convention with joyful singing, Scripture and Prayers, setting our grants for the new biennium, electing officers, changing bylaws, meeting new YWRs and teens, enjoying and praising our Lord through magnificent banners, being challenged by Cynthia Khan (our Keynote mission speaker) about ministry to Muslims, hearing Deaconess Sylvia Johnson energize us with being the “Face of LWML”, thanking God for our great nation, honoring our past District presidents, beginning to plan for conventions in Peoria 2011 and our 2012 Oregon convention and so much more excitement!

And now it is TIME TO GO!! as Pastor Faragalli challenged us in the Sending Service. On we go as we carry on our convention objectives into our daily life: 

 

PROCLAIM OUR GOD.  EXPRESS OUR TRUST.  ENGAGE OUR SERVICE.
