Welcome Paul Petersen
The Real Reason We Are Here “You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light” (1 Peter 2:9 NIV). The Gathered & Scattered Church – Hugh Halter
CPLOM Mission Statement • 2 Goals • Support the ministry of its member congregations • Make and nurture disciples for Jesus Christ • 2 Methods • Provide Christian learning and renewal opportunities • Build up the community of believers • 1 Purpose • Reach out to the world in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

MC Examples Abound!! Ministry to hosted retreat guests…Alison Pettyjohn came for Camp Rainbow Gold and now is signed up for the LIT camp! Her dad saw that our high school staff get to clean toilets…and thought his daughter might benefit from that! Ellie “Frisbee” Lutz working with the King’s Kids from Trinity Lutheran, Eden, ID. Ellie is serving in a shared ministry position with Camp Perkins (May-Aug) and Trinity (Sept-May) Camp Rainbow Gold is not a Christian organization, but the Cross is not hidden! It even took a prominent place in their nightly campfires. On the last night, Camp Perkins staff surrounded the group and sang “You are the Light of the World” to the group. One mother said it was like being surrounded by angels. Servant Event with the City Light Kids in Boise and youth from Beautiful Savior.
Community, Communion & Mission • Jesus didn’t wait for the lost to find him. He went out to find them. • He took the initiative and He paid the price • To release moments of connecting people to Jesus we need to be taking the initiative to be out in the midst of the people who need Christ in their lives Exciting to be part of the ministry at Camp Perkins!!
