  Youth Encounter's midwest regional team, Captive Free, will be at  American Lutheran Church for a Family concert on Wednesday, Feb. 4th at 7:30 p.m. Preceding the concert they will lead the confirmation class.   
  They will sing contempory Christian music, share their Christian faith in drama or puppet ministry.  Come for a fun and faith time with your family at ALC.  Invite others, too.  There will be a free will offering. 
  We will provide them with the evening meal at church.  We will need a few host families to keep them overnight and provide breakfast and a sack lunch for the road.  Call Pastor if you can host them.
