Pastor Jeff Scoggins Communication
New Conference President Jeff Scoggins is hoping to increase communication from the conference to all the church members in Minnesota. We have created two new options for keeping up with the news. First is “The Northern Light Extra,” which is an email newsletter directly from Pastor Scoggins that will arrive in your inbox at least monthly and sometimes more often. Subscribe at http://eepurl.com/iu3GJQ. The second option, if you are on Facebook, is to follow his page at Facebook.com/PastorJeffScoggins. You can at least try the options out and if you don’t find them useful, it’s easy to unsubscribe.
Here are two QR codes as well, in case you prefer to scan the links. The first one is for The Extra, and the second is for the Facebook feed.

The Benefits of Having a Will
A will is an important element of good stewardship. Writing your will can ensure that your property goes to the people and organizations you wish to receive it. It enables you to choose the person you want to be the legal guardian of your minor children rather than the court deciding. It can also provide peace of mind and certainty to your family and loved ones and help minimize conflicts and unnecessary expenses. The Minnesota Conference provides wills and trusts for members and their spouses at no cost while you are living. To learn more, visit our website at www.mnsdagift.org or call us at (763) 424-8923.
