Please considering supporting the YOUTH GROUP TREASURE BOX PROGRAM! The Treasure Box is a great way to support our OSLC Youth Group! Each Wednesday the Youth Group looks forward to opening the Treasure Box to see what it will hold. Drop us a note- even if it’s just to say “hello”. Jot down or type up a life event that you or your family may be dealing with, no name is necessary. Our Youth get to talk about real life issues that they may someday encounter themselves. We’ll post a reply to your note on the Youth Group Treasure Box website page, with suggestions on how our Youth would handle the situation. Feel like paying forward to our community? Purchase a gift card, drop it in the Treasure Box and each week as a group, we’ll pay the gift card forward to someone in our community with a note that reads: “You are receiving this gift as a part of the OSLC Youth Group Treasure Box Program. No thanks are necessary, all we ask is that if or when you are able, please pay our generosity forward in the future. Our Savior Lutheran Church, Flandreau. www.oslcflandreau.org .” Then watch for a post on the Treasure Box Page as to how it went! What a great learning experience and opportunity for our Youth Group kids to give without receiving! The TREASURE BOX is located in the glassed entry of the education unit. Your support for this Youth Program is greatly appreciated, THANK YOU!
