ELCA's God'sGlobal Barnyard
During the months of November and December we raise funds to purchase animals for families around the world. This is a part of ELCA’s God’s Global Barnyard. These animals provide much needed food and also income for families.
Vcation Bible School
Annually in early June, Atonement offers Vacation Bible School for kids from age 3 through sixth grade. Kids explore what it means to have a friendship with God! Kids participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, devour yummy treats, and have fun with arts and crafts.
Each summer Atonement's Pastors and other adults lead three trips to the BWCA: high school girls, grades 9-12, for fathers and sons, and for high school boys, going into grades 9-12. Registration begins in early May.
