      <image:caption>You do not have to audition or be perfect at reading a musical score. You just need a love of singing and a desire to touch and change people's lives! We rehearse on Wednesday nights from 7:00-9:00 in the Nave. We will be focusing on beautiful music to share for the Seasons of Lent, Palm Sunday, Good Friday and Easter. Please email Kenda Meyer, Chancel Choir Director if you need more information or have specific questions. This is a great group of people who love to sing and also enjoy social outings together! It's not often you get to sing with a choir of this size. We would love to have you!</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Anchor Newsletter - News for the Week of November 26,2025 - CAMP REGISTRATION!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thinking About Summer—Yes, Already! Even though fall is in full swing, I’m already looking ahead to Summer 2026! I’ve got lots of camp and retreat dates for you—some are just heads-up, others already have registration opening soon. Camp has been a huge part of my faith journey, and I encourage everyone (yes, even adults!) to attend a camp or retreat. Since I’m not a Colorado native, I’ve included info not just for Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp, but also for two other amazing Lutheran camps outside the state. Rainbow Trail registration opens Nov 1, and spots go fast! I (and maybe Kelly) will be at Rainbow Trail for Intros, Juniors, and Confirmation weeks. If you’re up for a farther adventure, my family usually attends Family Camp 2 at Camp Nawakwa (PA)—and we'd love to have familiar faces join us! Summer '26 will mark our 17th year there. Thanks, Thomas Director of Faith Formation</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Anchor Newsletter - News for the Week of November 20,2025 - CAMP REGISTRATION!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thinking About Summer—Yes, Already! Even though fall is in full swing, I’m already looking ahead to Summer 2026! I’ve got lots of camp and retreat dates for you—some are just heads-up, others already have registration opening soon. Camp has been a huge part of my faith journey, and I encourage everyone (yes, even adults!) to attend a camp or retreat. Since I’m not a Colorado native, I’ve included info not just for Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp, but also for two other amazing Lutheran camps outside the state. Rainbow Trail registration opens Nov 1, and spots go fast! I (and maybe Kelly) will be at Rainbow Trail for Intros, Juniors, and Confirmation weeks. If you’re up for a farther adventure, my family usually attends Family Camp 2 at Camp Nawakwa (PA)—and we'd love to have familiar faces join us! Summer '26 will mark our 17th year there. Thanks, Thomas Director of Faith Formation</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Anchor Newsletter - News for the Week of November 6,2025 - CAMP REGISTRATION!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thinking About Summer—Yes, Already! Even though fall is in full swing, I’m already looking ahead to Summer 2026! I’ve got lots of camp and retreat dates for you—some are just heads-up, others already have registration opening soon. Camp has been a huge part of my faith journey, and I encourage everyone (yes, even adults!) to attend a camp or retreat. Since I’m not a Colorado native, I’ve included info not just for Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp, but also for two other amazing Lutheran camps outside the state. Rainbow Trail registration opens Nov 1, and spots go fast! I (and maybe Kelly) will be at Rainbow Trail for Intros, Juniors, and Confirmation weeks. If you’re up for a farther adventure, my family usually attends Family Camp 2 at Camp Nawakwa (PA)—and we'd love to have familiar faces join us! Summer '26 will mark our 17th year there. Thanks, Thomas Director of Faith Formation</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Anchor Newsletter - News for the Week of October 30,2025 - CAMP REGISTRATION!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thinking About Summer—Yes, Already! Even though fall is in full swing, I’m already looking ahead to Summer 2026! I’ve got lots of camp and retreat dates for you—some are just heads-up, others already have registration opening soon. Camp has been a huge part of my faith journey, and I encourage everyone (yes, even adults!) to attend a camp or retreat. Since I’m not a Colorado native, I’ve included info not just for Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp, but also for two other amazing Lutheran camps outside the state. Rainbow Trail registration opens Nov 1, and spots go fast! I (and maybe Kelly) will be at Rainbow Trail for Intros, Juniors, and Confirmation weeks. If you’re up for a farther adventure, my family usually attends Family Camp 2 at Camp Nawakwa (PA)—and we'd love to have familiar faces join us! Summer '26 will mark our 17th year there. Thanks, Thomas Director of Faith Formation</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Anchor Newsletter - News for the Week of October 23,2025 - CAMP REGISTRATION!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Thinking About Summer—Yes, Already! Even though fall is in full swing, I’m already looking ahead to Summer 2026! I’ve got lots of camp and retreat dates for you—some are just heads-up, others already have registration opening soon. Camp has been a huge part of my faith journey, and I encourage everyone (yes, even adults!) to attend a camp or retreat. Since I’m not a Colorado native, I’ve included info not just for Rainbow Trail Lutheran Camp, but also for two other amazing Lutheran camps outside the state. Rainbow Trail registration opens Nov 1, and spots go fast! I (and maybe Kelly) will be at Rainbow Trail for Intros, Juniors, and Confirmation weeks. If you’re up for a farther adventure, my family usually attends Family Camp 2 at Camp Nawakwa (PA)—and we'd love to have familiar faces join us! Summer '26 will mark our 17th year there. Don’t hesitate to reach out with questions. I’d love to talk more about camp! Thanks, Thomas Director of Faith Formation</image:caption>

      <image:title>Give - Its Time to Update your e-giving</image:title>
      <image:caption>As we look towards July 1st and the beginning of the new ministry/fiscal year for LCHope, its time update your recurring e-gifts in PushPay with the amount your pledged in our Spring Annual Mission Appeal. To do this, go into PushPay and edit the dollar amount being given in your recurring gift.  If you choose to enter a new recurring payment rather than editing your old one, please delete your old gift before you enter your new one.  If you end up with two recurring gifts for the same thing, the system gets confused.  If you need help with this or to set up a recurring gift to LCHope, please contact Beth Bosio, LCHope Financial Secretary after June 24th.</image:caption>
