2018 Theme: CALLED
“And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:14b)
A people far from home. An orphan girl pulled from obscurity and thrust into prominence and power. An
assassination attempt against the king. Palace intrigue. Plots within plots. The orphan girl facing off against
insurmountable odds to save her people.
Recognize this story? It’s not the latest Hollywood blockbuster or best-selling novel. Instead, it’s a retelling of
events from the book of Esther. Esther takes place in the land of Persia, where the Jewish people have been
living in exile. Esther is a young Jewish girl, raised by her cousin, Mordecai, after the death of her parents.
Through a series of improbable events, she eventually becomes the queen of Persia.
The major crisis of the book of Esther
occurs when Haman, a high-ranking
official in the favor of the Persian king,
manages to get an edict passed
approving the annihilation of the Jewish
people. Mordecai begs Esther for help in
interceding before the king on their
behalf. There’s only one problem:
according to Persian law, anyone who
approaches the king without his explicit
invitation risks death—and Esther hasn’t
been invited before the king in over a
month.
Esther has a choice to make. And it’s the choice to stand by silently or to take a stand. But this is what
Mordecai says to her as she waivers over what decision to make: “If you keep silent at this time, relief and
deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. And who
knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”
Mordecai absolutely trusts in the faithfulness of God, and he’s reminding Esther that their deliverance doesn’t
depend on her. But her obedience to God’s call does. What might seem like the safe option isn’t as safe as just
trusting in the providence of God.
And so Esther makes her decision: “Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law, and if I perish, I
perish.” Esther goes before the king. She pleads her case. She opens his eyes to Haman’s plotting, and the
tables are turned—Haman is the one sentenced to destruction. Esther saves her people.
The book of Esther never mentions God by name, and yet, the silence of God doesn’t mean the absence of
God. Esther is overwhelmingly a story of God’s provision and faithfulness towards His people. God used Esther
in ways she probably never imagined were possible. God works through people, and He wants to work through
you!
Our theme this year at Camp Luther is CALLED. We’re going to be talking about what it means that we are
called by God. Now, some of you may be thinking, “Not me! God hasn’t called me anywhere. How could He
possibly use me?” But time and time again through the Bible, we find that God uses the unlikely, the useless,
and the weak to display His glory. From Moses to Rahab to David to Esther to Peter to Paul…God doesn’t call
the equipped; He equips those He calls.
So where is God calling you? Where is Jesus asking you to follow Him? Join us this year as we dive deep into
the book of Esther and learn more about God’s faithfulness, and the way He works in us and through us to
share His glory and grace.

Lessons from a Dog Sled
Trainer
I have been enjoying one of those Alaska
reality shows. In a recent episode about a
couple and their dog sled team, some
important leadership lessons were shared. As
they were “training up” a six-month-old puppy
named “Jack” they shared these words of
wisdom.
1. Always plan for the future. “If you don’t train up ahead of time
you’ll find yourself with no leaders.”
2. Ease the young into leader roles. “Get them comfortable with
the team and build confidence at a young age.”
3. Don’t have just one leader. “The more dogs you can put into a
leadership position the better.”
4. Have different types of leaders. “You have to have several dogs
who can do several things.”
These are awesome lessons for us today!
The church is currently facing a lack of Pastors, teachers, DCEs,
and lay leaders. It is crucial that we plan for the future by
identifying young people with the gifts to lead and serve, giving
them opportunities to serve and test out their leadership skills,
and raising up leaders for a variety of roles in the church and as
leaders in our society.
Camp is a “boot camp” for leadership.
Youth Campers develop leadership skills working with others on
the Challenge Course, daily cleaning assignments, and service
projects.
Students in IMPACT, Ignite, and Servant Events participate in
community service projects that help identify their gifts and
inspire them toward new opportunities.
Junior Counselors put skills to the test with real campers, while
being coached and mentored by older staff.
Counselors lead campers individually and as part of a team in an
environment where (safe) risk is encouraged, mistakes are
Forgiven, and resilience is tested.
Program Coordinators develop skills that will make them better
prepared to lead in the church, the work place, and community.
“For such a time as this.”
Getting a child to camp may be the first step in them recognizing
the gifts God has bestowed upon them. Thank you for supporting
Camp Luther and Every Kid to Camp, which brings up to 300
children to camp each summer to this training center for
leadership.
In Christ,
Gary “Woody” Vought
Executive Director
Prayer Requests
In thankfulness for all Camp Luther Volunteers.
In thankfulness for all who support Camp Luther through their prayers

For all campers and guests that will participate in Camp programs this

For the Camp Luther Year-Round staff.
For the future of Camp Luther as the Filled with the Spirit Campaign is
shared with more people.

Gospel of Jesus Christ.
That camp, the staff, and campaign leadership would be lifted up in
Jesus’ name and the enemy, the devil, would gain no foothold.

You Complete the Meal
Did you know that registration fees and other revenue account
for only 2/3 of Camp Luther’s needed income. The remaining
1/3 is generously donated by those who wish to support the
ministry that happens at Camp through giving to the Outdoor
Ministry Fund and Every Kid to Camp. Thank you for helping
Christ’s love to be shared with all!
With your help, Camp is able to:
enhance and expand programming and outreach.
maintain and care for facilities and property.
offer camp to every child regardless of their financial situation.
build a healthy and thriving organization to carry on the traditions and mission of this ministry.
A special Thank You to MCL
Industries, Inc., Pulaski, WI,
for their generous support
of Keweenaw Base Camp
and Every Kid to Camp.

Calling All Runners!
Love to run? Love camp? How about bringing both
worlds together at Camp Luther?!
Camp Luther has been a sponsor of the Three Eagle
5K and Half Marathon since the race’s inception in
2014. This one-of-a-kind race is held each October
on the Three Eagle trail, which passes by Camp
Luther just a half mile down the road. As the race
grows in popularity every year, Camp Luther is
looking to create a retreat for friends of camp who love to run and would
be interested in participating in this outstanding event.
This year’s race takes place
on October 13. Cottages are
currently available and if filled
the Retreat Center can be used.
Please contact Beemer at
beemer@campluther.com or
715-546-3647 if you are
interested in booking a spot and
being involved in the race.
Please check out http://www.3eaglehalf.com for more information
regarding the race.
