1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
I’ve joked that it seems like we’ve been in perpetual Lent since last March. We wait in patience for the new
thing that is taking place in Jesus Christ our Lord. And, in the waiting, we know that it has already happened.
Jesus comes to us in Christmas joy, incarnate, with us. And now, as we begin the season of Lent, we trust that
Easter joy is around the corner.
This year our Lenten theme is “Prayers of the Bible.” It is prayer that sustains us. Prayer connects us to God,
and connects us to one another. Prayer is conversation. Prayer is relationship. There are many ways that one
can pray, and one of those ways is with the words of scripture. Prayer also happens in the act of creating, of
bringing something beautiful that wasn’t into the world. We are asking folks to make Prayer Flags throughout
the season that will fly in our sanctuary Easter morning. Listen for more about those.
Things are going to be different this year. The one thing that we can expect these days is the unexpected.
Here’s a rundown of what Lent will look like:
Ash Wednesday is early this year: February 17th.
All of our Lenten services will be at 6:30pm, including Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday,
and Good Friday.
There will be no Lenten meal.
The Youth Music Team will not lead singing this Lent.
We will have a traditional service instead of the Living Last Supper on Maundy Thursday
Our Lent offerings will go to help support the Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer Preschool.
First Communion will happen at a later date.
Easter is April 4th.
ᵒ We will only have two Easter services, 8:30am and 10:30am.
Siblings in Christ, we will get back to whatever normal will look like soon enough. In the meantime, thank you
for your patience and understanding as we all work together to continue the mission and ministry of “Making
Christ known through word and deed.” We do ministry together. Thank you for your commitment to the Gospel.

Join Our Lenten Prayer Flag Project
All are invited to participate in our Lenten Prayer Flag Project during February and March.
Whether you’ve heard of Prayer Flags (or not), you are encouraged to learn more about
this unique way to express your prayers during Lent.
While each flag begins with a small piece of fabric, the Lenten Prayer Flag is not a sewing
project that requires precise skills or equipment. If you have a needle and thread (or pos-
sibly paint and paint brushes), you’ll be ready to participate. Feel free to stop by the Wel-
come Center to see some examples.
Once completed, your individual prayers will become part of a larger prayer as the flags
are strung together and displayed throughout the sanctuary during the season of Lent.
Lenten Prayer Flag starter kits can be picked up at
the Welcome Center (or send an email to
[email protected]) to have one mailed to
you! For those of you without a stash of craft sup-
plies at home, we’ll also have an assortment of fab-
ric, ribbon and other embellishments available for
your Lenten Prayer Flag inspiration.
We look forward to entering this Lenten journey to-
gether in prayer.

Dish to Pass by Twila Schmitt
Will you be my Valentine? Last year’s pre-pandemic Valentine’s Day was just the begin-
ning of some “special deliveries” to several beloved people in our congregation. As I recall, our Be-
Frienders prepared 16 sweet gift baskets for some of our members. While delivering these Valentine
baskets, we also had the luxury of visiting with these folks in their homes!
Oh, how times have changed! While we continue to keep in touch via phone calls, cards, emails and
texts, we look forward to the day when we can once again sit down and chat face-to-face!
Over the past 10 months, we’ve been so amazed at YOUR willingness to help make several other
“holiday deliveries” happen! Many of you delivered our Youth Group’s Thanksgiving and Christmas gift
bags to your neighbors – and others offered to “deliver all the rest.” Wow!
As this Valentine’s Day arrives, we are preparing Valentine gift bags for even more “special deliveries.”
Our LCOOR Preschool kiddos have prepared special hand-made Valentines for every recipient – and
each gift bag is sure to include a variety of sweet treats as well. The only thing that will be missing is
“visiting time.”
“So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”
– 1 Corinthians 13:13
So, when I ask, “Will you be my Valentine?” what I’m really asking is, “Will you take some extra time to
reach out to your neighbors and your loved ones?” Valentine’s Day is a convenient time to drop a few
cards in the mail or make a few phone calls. It is the perfect time to do small things with great love!
Thanks, again, to all of you who are already checking in on your friends and neighbors. And, if you
would be willing to check in with a couple of other folks occasionally, please give me a call or stop by
the Welcome Center to chat.
Oh, and thanks, for being my Valentine!!
These Brickle Blonde Brownies by Janet Brandsrud sound like a perfect Valentine’s treat!

January was SOUP-ER!
Thanks to all who contributed to our January
Super Soup Collection! We’ll report our final
results (# of cans and packages) in the next
newsletter, but your donations for the Salvation
Army Food Pantry were fantastic! In addition to
a heaping helping of canned and dry soup mixes,
we were also able to donate funds to the Salva-
tion Army. It’s amazing what we can accomplish
when we do small things with great love!
Fruity February: We CAN do it!
February is a short month – and the Salvation
Army Food Pantry often runs short on canned
fruit! We’ll be collecting canned fruit all month
long – so if you could pick up an extra can or two
while shopping, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks from Brothers & Sisters
Behind Bars Thank you for your on-going commitment to the
health and well-being of our sisters and brothers
who struggle with addiction in our community.
Wellness passes were again praised by Judge
Means this week at Drug Court. We have 4 folks
graduating next week who will be able to contin-
ue to use passes if they choose. So two passes
are helpful! I’m proud to be part of a congrega-
tion that reaches out to folks in need outside our
congregation. Brothers & Sisters Behind Bars
continues our work to break the chain of addic-
tion.

Last November we started a fundraising project,
"Seeds of Hope for Nicaragua." This was an ef-
fort to assist our siblings in Nicaragua with pur-
chasing seeds for replanting after they had lost
all their crops following two major hurricanes.
Our goal was to raise at least $14,000 as this
was the amount needed to purchase seeds to
assist 9 (out of 15) communities that suffered
the most. Thanks to your generosity, we have
raised $28,535.96 to date! This will go a long
way to not only purchase seeds for replanting,
but also food for communities, farming equip-
ment, and supporting other projects of the Lu-
theran Church of Nicaragua. Thank you for your
acts of love. May the Lord continue to provide for
all your needs in Christ as promised in Philippi-
ans 4:19, so that you may always be a blessing
to others.
Total Raised to Date from Members
& Friends of LCOOR: $8,085.00

On March 13, 2020, the Lutherans Outdoors’ Board of Directors made a decision to stop allprogramming at our camp sites for a 10-week period. On April 7, 2020, the Board of Directorsmade the decision to cancel the summer program at Outlaw Ranch, Joy Ranch, NeSoDak, andKlein Ranch. This was the right decision, yet very difficult.
The empty camps continued in this way for the rest of the year, except for some horse ridingprograms at Joy Ranch and some family rentals at Outlaw and NeSoDak. It will continue to bequiet during the first months of 2021.
Lutherans Outdoors found several ways to keep the relational ministry happening last summerthrough successful special event fundraisers. Klein Ranch had many supporters participate inthe Adopt-A-Horse program. Joy Ranch held special drive-thru Chef Nights. NeSoDak had a funRoad Runner 5K Run/Walk. Outlaw Ranch offered a Thursday night Concert Series featuringFamily Camp musicians from past years with a special Christmas Concert in December.
We look with optimism and excitement to Summer 2021! Lutherans Outdoors is moving forwardin providing summer camp programs at a 60% capacity for the summer of 2021. We are hopefulthat retreats and gatherings can begin again this fall. It will be wonderful to hear the laughterand music and life that has been missing for too long.
We hope that your congregation can feel safe at camp and allow Lutherans Outdoors to providean important and much needed faith-growing experience called Bible Camp for members of allages. We will see you at camp!
During the course of our need to cancel summer camp and not host retreatgroups, Lutherans Outdoors lost approximately 1.7 million dollars of anticipatedincome. The loss of revenue will continue into 2021 with the hope that revenuestreams can begin again with summer programs---but they are notguaranteed.
Thus, there has been a great need for financial help from our ministry donors.And many, many of them did indeed make wonderful financial contributionsto help fill the revenue need. Lutherans Outdoors also was able to receive aFederal PPP loan.
CONGREGATIONALREPORT
The year 2020 may not have allowed Lutherans Outdoors to share four beautiful ministry sites with you,but it has not stopped Lutherans Outdoors from continuing its mission. Lutherans Outdoors is still avibrant, meaningful ministry that will continue to provide life-giving and faith-growing experiences forpeople of all ages for years to come.
FINANCIAL NEED
PROGRAM
2 0 2 0
Lutherans Outdoors in South Dakota welcomes all to explore andexperience Christ’s love in community and creation.
But the financial need is still great and we will be making a large financial ask during 2021through our Keep The Campfires Burning Appeal. Your congregation will be receiving andsharing information on how you can make a vital decision to help Lutherans Outdoors continueto be a strong ministry through a generous donation.
Thank you for making our campfires burn bright into the future with your positive response tothis appeal.
