Greetings from Sisseton! What an exciting weekend! We were privileged to come back home where our family hosted a surprise, early birthday party for my mother who will be 100 in November (too difficult to get family together in unpredictable Midwest weather in November). It was so much fun to be with my 9 brothers, their mates, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren and great-great-great grandchildren. There were over 100 of our immediate family there (chuckle). I am posting a couple of pictures that looks like a church Sunday School photo. She was totally surprised and we had a program and dinner, humorous skits and stories, etc. What a great time of incredible memories! It was wonderful to be able to celebrate her life with her there (versus coming together for a homegoing), she enjoyed every minute of it. What a milestone!

You've heard of the term "a diamond in the desert"? That's exactly what we experienced when we were invited to the little thumbprint community in Goehner, Nebraska.
The meeting was packed with excitement and wonderful people expecting something from the Lord. Many made decisions for Christ and life changes in that service! It was great to meet Pastor Galen Skinner, who so graciously hosted us. It was truly an exciting event during the Fourth of July weekend!
We are preparing to leave for a tour out in western South Dakota and looking forward to great altar calls and seeing lives changed! I am sure we will experience the prairie land heat wave that is coming through. Try to keep cool and have a wonderful week! Please continue to remember us in prayer for safety and health. Blessings to you!

*Save The Date!
Larry and Gloria will be celebrating 50 years of marriage and ministry in October! Their children and the Larry Lundstrom Ministries board are making plans for a very special day on Saturday, October 3rd, 2015, in the afternoon. Music fun and fellowship will be enjoyed! We hope you'll save this date and come to celebrate and honor Larry and Gloria's ministry. More details in September's newsletter!

{Chuckle/Reflection}
Hanging up the phone with my 90-year-old mother, I sighed, then said to ?my 96-year-old uncle, "She's so ?stubborn."
He shook his head sympathetically and warned, "You're going to have trouble with her when she gets old."
