2. Conference 2012 cont.
As members of the conference youth
board, we decided that in order to
encourage other LCMS youth members
to come to conference this year we
should visit the different LCMS
churches. So far we have visited:
Benediction Lutheran Church
(Milwaukee):
Here we were given the opportunity
to join their church picnic service.
Hmong Hope Lutheran Church
(Milwaukee):
Here we participated in their Sunday
school and church service.

afterwards we celebrated Pastor’s Day
with the church members by having a
feast.
Verses of the month
Proverbs 30:4 Who has ascended
to heaven and come down? Who
has gathered the wind in his fists?
Who has wrapped up the waters in
a garment? Who has established
all the ends of the earth? What is
his name, and what is his son’s
name? Surely you know!
Jesus, the Son of God
Old Testament – Prophesied
Luke 1:31-33 “…And behold, you will
conceive in your womb and bear a son,
and you shall call his name Jesus. He
will be great and will be called the Son
of the Most High. And the Lord God will
give to him the throne of his father
David, and he will reign over the house
of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom
there will be no end.”
New Testament – Fulfilled
