President’s Message John Johnson

Dear Friends in Christ, The mission of the Church is and always has

been “Proclamation of the Gospel.” Jesus told

us in Matthew; “Go ye therefore and teach all

nations, baptizing them…. How are you and I

being a part of that proclamation? How do we

go, teach? Attending Church, praying, serving

within our Churches structure, teaching Sun-

day school, inviting neighbors to attend

Church with us, supporting missions at all lev-

els, and joining with our Church community

members in an organization called LLL/LHM

dedicated to “Bringing Christ to the Nations

and the Nations to the Church.” These and

hundreds of others things that could be added

to the list are action items requiring you and I

to look outward, to go and do.

This newsletter has many examples of how

you partnering with your neighbors in the

community of God’s people can better accom-

plish Jesus instructions to you and I. Let’s be

a team; don’t just “let George do it.”

Lutheran Hour Ministries Selects

Next Executive Director St. Louis, MO, August,

7, 2013 — Kurt Buch-

holz of Glen Arm, Mar-

yland, has accepted a

call from the Board of

Directors of the Interna-

tional Lutheran Lay-

men’s League (Int’l

LLL) to become the

next Executive Director

for Lutheran Hour Min-

istries. Buchholz will

join the ministry Aug.

30 and will work along-

side current Executive

Director Bruce Wurde-

man until Wurdeman’s

retirement at the end of the calendar year.

“I have worked closely with the Int’l LLL and Luther-

an Hour Ministries in my previous positions, and I am

excited and honored to be chosen to lead this organiza-

tion at a time when we are faced with so many outreach

challenges and yet provided with so many Spirit-led op-

portunities to reach an increasingly post-Christian cul-

ture,” says Buchholz.

“I have seen firsthand how the ministry, under the

excellent direction provided by Bruce Wurdeman and his

leadership team, serves a unique role as ‘Your Partner in

His Mission’ to boldly proclaim the message of Jesus

Christ to a hurting world,” he continues. “I have also

been blessed to know and work with many of the minis-

try staff over the years and I can assure you that God has

brought together a very gifted group of individuals. It is

truly an honor to be in ministry alongside them!”

Buchholz most recently served as the vice president

for special initiatives and executive director of the Lu-

theran Malaria Initiative for Lutheran World Relief in

Baltimore, Maryland. In this role he led strategic initia-

tives targeted at simultaneous growth in three areas: in-

ternational programs, constituent engagement and inter-

nal management systems. The Lutheran Malaria Initia-

tive is a partnership of LWR and The Lutheran

Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) to mobilize U.S. Lu-

therans in the global effort to eliminate malaria deaths in

Africa by 2015.

From 1993 through 2011, Buchholz served LCMS

World Mission in a variety of leadership positions, in-

cluding interim executive director, where he helped re-

verse a decade-long trend of decreasing revenue and lead

the organization to financial stability. He was instrumen-

tal in leading the rollout of a complex $100 million fund-

raising campaign for LCMS World Mission that ended in 2011.

Buchholz has lived and worked in Taiwan in various

leadership roles, including school start-up and manage-

ment, and he and his wife Jenny served as missionaries

there for seven years. He is a graduate of Concordia Uni-

versity in Irvine, California, in the elementary education pro-

gram and received his Director of Christian Education certifi-

cation and a Master of Arts in organizational management

from Concordia University in St. Paul, Minnesota.

“We are very pleased that Kurt has accepted the call to be

our next executive director, given his past successes in lead-

ing large scale initiatives and his strong network of partner-

ships with leaders throughout The Lutheran Church—

Missouri Synod,” says Wurdeman. “He brings a wealth of

experience and passion in national and international missions

to this position and we are excited to welcome him to Luther-

an Hour Ministries.”

LLL/LHM Booth at the Kansas State Fair The 100 year celebration of the Kansas State Fair will take

at talltons2003@yahoo.com if you or your congregation or

your zone would be able to help in the booth for a three hour

shift or be able to cover several shifts. The booth is open

from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. You could also contact Mike at 620-

465-3435 Region 3 Ron Bott

This is no surprise to any of you that the Lutheran Laymen’s

League is losing members. But what are we doing about this situa-tion? We may have already given up, or are close to throwing in

the towel. We may see longtime supporters leave. We see others

lukewarm when we talk about the LLL. Sometimes we feel as

though we are the only one left. But do not give up. Do not give

in to all the others.

I can see the competition we are up against—school, sports,

social events, and you know many others. We must not forget

what the Bible says, “Go and teach all nations.” “You shall be my

witness from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth.” “You are the

light for all the world to see.” “We are to love our neighbor as

ourselves.” If we have faith, if we enjoy the gift of forgiveness of

sins, if we are confident of our Salvation let’s be fair with our

neighbors, friends, co-workers and even those we will never see

and share these important things that we cling to.

“OK wise guy” you might say, “Show me.” Let me tell you

when it comes to the internet and that stuff I am just plain

dumb. But I can find the Daily Devotions, mostly by former

speaker Reverend Ken Klaus, which is a good start. There are

activities and programs available for all ages, from individuals to

groups. So find a Bible Study group and share some Lutheran Hour Ministries material with them. They may be cold to your ideas but

give the Holy Spirit time. Give them time to think. Put an article

in your church bulletin, enroll someone in the Daily Devotions on

the internet, and invite someone to Bible Study. What a BOLD

move. The opportunities are endless, but we MUST do these

things.

Just like the other events in our lives, pray, pray, pray. Make

some notes and make some plans. Maybe practice with your

spouse or friend. Take a friend along. These are just ideas. Come

up with your own.

Just remember our mission statement “Bringing Christ to the

Nations and the Nations to the Church.” The Lutheran Laymen’s

League with Lutheran Hour Ministries is about EVANGE-

LISM. This is the number 1 purpose God placed us here today and

in days to come.

Kansas District Project 2012-13 The contributions to the 2012-13 Kansas District LLL

Project with a goal of $33,000 was only about $30,000.

This is a $7,000 drop from our 2009-10 District Project

when we received over $37,000 in contributions. With

about $3,000 of carryover funds from the closing out the

Endowment Fund last year, we are able to fund the

$33,000 goal. The first half of the $26,000 budgeted for

financial aid for students studying for full time church

work has been distributed.

The Kansas District Board of Governors at their Au-

gust meeting proposed to keep the 2013-14 Kansas Dis-

trict LLL Project budget goal at $33,000. All of the En-

dowment Funds have been expended. In order to meet

the $33,000 goal we need to encourage more contribu-

tions from our fellowship groups, congregations and

members. Most of our District Project funds are raised

from pancake feeds and soup supper events and special

door offerings. The proposed $33,000 2013-14 Kansas

District LLL Project budget to be presented to the Kansas

LLL District convention in November will include: Fi-

nancial Aid for students studying for full time church

A recent Mission U, MU203 “Sharing the Gospel in a

Digital Age” was presented by Rev. Dr. Lee Hagan, Sen-

ior Pastor at St. Paul’s Concordia, Mo., and was hosted by

Bethany, Overland Park.

The 2013 LLL/LWML Lutheran

Family Retreat By Carroll Hackbart

The 2013 LLL/LWML Lutheran Family Retreat

was held at Camp Webster near Salina, Kansas

August 2,3,& 4 with only about 80 attendees. More

than 75% were returnees, some traveling from

several states away. The Retreat Committee did a

fantastic job organizing and running the retreat.

Many thanks for their time and effort. We had great

weather.

The schedule included a Bible study/Sunday

school each day and a Sunday worship service. The

rest of the time was Family Free Time to enjoy camp

activities. These included; climbing wall, the fly, zip

line, high challenge course, canoes, paddle boats,

swimming, air rifle, archery, Tetherball, basketball,

crafts, sand dig or just relaxing and visiting. Evening

activities on Friday included a camp fire at the lake

with S’mores and Saturday Line Dancing and/or

games with numerous snacks. Would those that

attended please tell members in your congregation

how much fun you had and all the activities

available. Your non-Lutheran friends are welcome

too.

The dormitories are air conditioned. Each room

has several double bunks, w/bath and shower for each

family. Great meals were provided, no kitchen duty.

Attendees ranged from toddlers to grandparents.

One 3 generation family has been attending for about

40 years. The Family Retreat is a great way for

parents and grandparents to spend a quality, fun

weekend with their kids and grandkids while

enjoying the fellowship of fellow Lutherans. Do you

hear slightly modified family reunion?

Mark August 1, 2, & 3, 2014 on your calendar, the
