June
22nd-27th -Spend A Day With Jesus - Youth In Exemplary Leadership and Discipleship
YIELD is a partnership project of Pioneer Camp and
Retreat Center, the Eastern District of the Lutheran
Church-Missouri Synod and Thrivent Financial for
Lutherans to bring special service learning and
youth leadership opportunities to the four main
regions of the Eastern District (Buffalo, NY; Rochester,
NY; Pittsburgh, PA; and Philadelphia, PA).
The purpose of this initiative is to train up youth
and young adults (ages 14 to 24) as leaders who
will raise up regional service opportunities and
ignite a passion in others to put faith into action,
making 1 Peter 4:10, a reality: “Each one
should use whatever gift he has received to serve
others, faithfully, administering God’s grace
in its various forms.”
It is our hope to involve every congregation in
our District in one or more of these, love sharing,
life-affirming, disciple- building, faith in action,
service events.
