W elcome to another busy and fun-filled year! This is the third year of the LEC, with its focus on God’s fam-ily, helping the youth to prepare for their future roles as pioneers in the soon coming World Tomorrow!

Spending time together with people of like minds helps us to build strong ties and assists in our ability to liveGod’s way of love, peace, co-operation, and the way of give, as opposed to the way of get. The LEC strives toprovide a Godly environment and additional opportunities for as many of our youth and families as possible tohave more fun, additional growth, and to continue to enjoy God’s creation!

W e would like to say a big THANK YOU forall of your hard work and participation

with the scrap metal and fire wood cutting proj-

ects. The LEC was able to purchase a 24 passen-ger Ford E350 El Dorado bus that will aid intransportation of our seniors during the Feast aswell as the campers for LEC events. We will con-tinue with wood and scrap metal fundraiser's un-til further notice.

The fruit sale was a big success, as we were ableto raise the money for the Smoky MountainCampout! Thank you all who helped make thispossible.

Don't forget to start saving your spare change tohelp cover your payment for the upcomingcampouts. Here is a good tip: keep a sharp-eyeout for extra change in parking lots. Every littlebit helps, and we hope to see EVERYONE there!
