Young Adults Retreat

Our University Lutheran Church (ULC) Young Adults recently met to discuss the upcoming ELCA Young Adult Gathering in New Orleans from July 16-20. The theme for the Gathering is “Created to Be” entered on Psalm 139:14 (I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.)

Due to the expense, Bryan Gamelin (ULC Young Adult Coordinator), Paul Westermann (LCM and ASU graduate student), and other ULC Young Adults worked together to compile a fundraising letter in attempt to raise funds to help cover some of the costs.

If you would like to make a donation for the young adults who will be attending, you may do so on our website. Please scroll to: LCM Individual Gifts and in the “Note” section—put Young Adult Gathering. Any donation is greatly appreciated.

If you are interested in attending or helping with fundraising, please contact Bryan Gamelin (ULC Young Adult Coordinator) at ulcyoungadult@gmail.com

ASU Pitchfork Pantry

The ASU Pitchfork Pantry is a student/volunteer-led nonprofit under ASU Foundation whose goal is to raise awareness of financial and food insecurities among the Sun Devil Community. The pantry provides fresh and non-perishable food items as well as hygiene and clothing items to ASU students.

We have recently donated over 250 items to the Pitchfork Pantry. A special thank you to Autumn Byars, Jacob Hilliker, Chris Sandoval, and Paul Westermann (Lutheran Campus Ministry–LCM–students) for delivering these items. We continue to collect shelf-stable foods. You can drop off your donation(s) in the church office or in the sanctuary.

ASU Pitchfork Pantry is always looking for volunteers to help with its Monday and Saturday distributions. They distribute Mondays from 2:30 pm to 4:30 pm, and Saturdays from 9:00 am to 10:00 am. Sign up today!
