Fair Booth Ministries
"Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
to the house of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways,
so that we may walk in his paths."
Micah 4:2 (NIV)
Within the district, the zones choose various ways to minister to others. Using the time and talents of volunteers, some zones organize fair booth ministries to reach out to people in their communities. Coordinating with their congregations, the zones staff their fair booths with volunteers willing to serve others.
Fair booth materials distributed may vary from one zone to another, but the materials are Christ-centered and are meant to help others with their spiritual walk. Materials include: Bibles, Lutheran Hour Ministries' (topical) booklets, children's activity booklets, tracts, information regarding broadcasts for " The Lutheran Hour ", and information regarding LCMS church services in the area. Sometimes, congregations bring additional material to share with others.
