Summer 2020

Update as of May 20, 2020: this trip has been CANCELED.

We had planned to serve once again in northern Idaho with Idaho Servant Adventures.

Lutherhaven and Idaho Servant Adventures program have canceled the trip. This was a difficult decision. You have been looking forward to it. The adults who were to accompany you and the staff at Shoshone Retreat Center were excited for the program. And the people we were to serve in the community needed us. Please stay healthy and safe.

Contact Fellowship Coordinator Sherry Grindeland, sherry@salc.church or 425-746-2529, with questions.

Summer 2019

Our trip was to Shoshone Mountain Retreat through Idaho Servant Adventures. Trip dates were July 28 – August 2, 2019.

Mission Trip Sunday
On Sunday, August 4, 2019, the Team shared their experiences through stories and photos.

Notes to Our Mission Trip Team
When our young people are baptized Pastor asks the congregation: “People of God, do you promise to support these students and pray for them in their new life in Christ?” We respond: “We do and we ask God to help and guide us.”
One way in which we expressed our support for our youth and adults was to print a short message with a Bible verse, a prayer, word of encouragement, etc. on a 3×5 index card. These cards were sent with the Team and shared with each other while they were on their mission.
The Team was blessed and commissioned on July 21, 2019.
