MEET-AND-GREET WITH PASTOR O’DONNELL As Pastor O'Donnell continues his deliberations for accepting his Divine Call from St. Paul’s, at his request, the Board of Elders would like to schedule an informal ‘meet and greet" with him, his family and the congregation on Sunday, August 12, at 3:00 pm, at Roosevelt Park during Oconomowoc Days. We plan to gather near the corner of Forest Street and Main Street, near the left field fence of the baseball diamond. This informal get together will allow him the opportunity to meet more members of St. Pauls and for him to get a better feel for the wonderful community that God has given us. REACHING REACHING DISCIPLES DISCIPLES LWML MISSION MINUTE UPDATE Children’s Nutrition and Care-Vietnam $72,255 Less than 10% of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is Christian and the government is traditionally closed to outside religious organizations. LCMS World Mission personnel have been in Vietnam since 1995 and work jointly with the Vietnamese National Institute of Nutrition and also teach management, farming, fishing, food preparation and food storage skills. Because of their valued history in education they are also reaching out to the people through education ministries at the new international school. The staff has been able to develop relationships with teachers and children and through this grant share the love of Jesus with humanitarian care and education projects.
