This STORYBOOK BEGINNING event will include a presentation of the story of Jesus in Mark by TLU professor Dr. Phil Ruge-Jones\, who is a Markan scholar and storyteller. Dr. Ruge-Jones will present a live performance of the book of Mark for our group. \nWe will also have games\, conversations\, and dinner together so our young people from the NT-NL Mission Area can meet each other as we all prepare for this Journey To Detroit! In addition\, there will be an opportunity for adult leaders to collaborate and share. This event has been paid for by several gifts and all we ask is $5 per person for dinner if you are able. \nMany of you may be traveling from out of town and we have several local churches and host families that would love to gift you with housing for this weekend if you would like to make it a weekend event for your kids. DFW is a great place to do teambuilding with your group—museums\, Texas Rangers baseball games\, Six Flags Over Texas\, Hurricane Harbor\, the Fort Worth Stockyards\, and much more. \nPlease RSVP by Monday\, June 22! Of course earlier is better\, and there will be a special treat for the first three groups that sign up! \n  \nREGISTER HERE:  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Kwoel2fy1-FE1dLtR-VVFZBTDdu88xLosr54-STXhYc/viewform?usp=send_form \n  URL:https://www.ntnl.org/event/storybook-beginning-nt-nl-youth/ LOCATION:Briarwood Leadership Center\, 670 Copper Canyon Rd.\, Argyle\, TX\, 76226\, United States CATEGORIES:Y ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.ntnl.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Storybook-beginning-e1431100680107.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="NT-NL Youth Leaders":MAILTO:NTNLYouthLeaders@yahoo.com GEO:33.0886127;-97.1074111 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Briarwood Leadership Center 670 Copper Canyon Rd.

The ELCA statement The Use of the Means of Grace describes the theological principles and practical applications of the sacraments in the ELCA\, but the reality is that there are a wide variety of practices across the church. \nJoin us for a conversation about sacramental practice and ways to provide pastoral care that is theologically grounded. \nThis Table Talk will be presented by the Rev. Kevin Strickland\, ELCA Director for Worship\, and the Rev. Martin Seltz\, who served as publisher and principal editor for Evangelical Lutheran Worship.  Pastor Seltz is currently the publisher for worship\, music\, and congregational life at Augsburg Fortress and has guided the development of the “Sundays and Seasons” resources. \nAll participants will receive a copy of the resource The Use of the Means of Grace and supporting resources. \nThe cost to attend is $12 for those who pay now with a credit card\, or you can pay $15 at the door (cash or check). \nFollow Pastor Kevin Strickland at @PastorKevinS.\nFollow @NTNLMission and join the conversation by using hashtag #NTNLTalk! \nTo find out more about the 2015 Table Talk series\, click here. \n\n \n \n Request a Coach\n \n \n Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Congregation*Congregational Leadership Role*\n \n \n Pastor\n \n \n \n Ministry Staff\n \n \n \n Lay Leader\n \n \n \n \n Email*\n \n Phone*Kind(s) of Coaching I am interested in:*\n \n Leadership issue(s)\n \n \n Developing Leaders\n \n \n Staffing issue(s)\n \n \n Congregational Vitality\n \n \n Congregational (re)development\n \n \n Mission Planting\n \n \n Stewardship\n \n \n Discipleship\n \n \n Conflict\n \n \n Transition(s) / Change(s)\n \n \n Other\n Any additional pertinent information:*Please provide any details that would be helpful in selecting a coach appropriate and best suited for you\, including any preferences you may have (i.e.\, gender\, race\, etc.)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Δ URL:https://www.ntnl.org/event/sept15tabletalk/ LOCATION:TX CATEGORIES:Y ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.ntnl.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Table-Talk-Means-of-Grace-K-Strickland-e1439232923671.png ORGANIZER;CN="Pastor Jane Mar":MAILTO:jane@ntnl.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20151009 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20151011 DTSTAMP:20260403T125429 CREATED:20141205T060000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170907T141827Z UID:16043-1444348800-1444521599@www.ntnl.org SUMMARY:NT-NL Synodical Women's Organization Fall Retreat DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.ntnl.org/event/nt-nl-synodical-womens-organization-retreat/ LOCATION:TX END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20151017T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20151017T190000 DTSTAMP:20260403T125429 CREATED:20150420T050000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170907T141827Z UID:16085-1445097600-1445108400@www.ntnl.org SUMMARY:2015 MEF Seeds that Change Dinner DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.ntnl.org/event/2015-mef-seeds-that-change-dinner/ LOCATION:TX CATEGORIES:Y ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.ntnl.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/MEF.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20151023T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20151025T150000 DTSTAMP:20260403T125429 CREATED:20150722T050000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170907T141827Z UID:16105-1445621400-1445785200@www.ntnl.org SUMMARY:LMM One Year To Love Retreat 2015 DESCRIPTION:One Year To Live is NOT your typical men’s retreat!\nDeveloped by LMM in partnership with Lyman Coleman\, pioneer of small group ministry\, CEO and founder of Serendipity Publishing House\, the One Year to Live retreat is designed to be a life changing\, lay led event.
