Let’s go to
India! (Virtually,
of course)
A
delegation of our
Lutheran sisters and
brothers are in
India celebrating
300 years of
Lutheran missions in
that country. ELCA
employees, leaders,
and members of ELCA
churches that are
companions to
churches in India
are in Chennai
(formerly Madras)
and Tranquebar
through July 10 to
celebrate 300 years
of Lutheran ministry
in India.
Read more
about the schedule
and the ELCA
participants.
Travelers with
that delegation are
posting their
thoughts and
reflections on the
Web by way of a
blog
(shorthand for "Web
log" — you might
think of it as a
diary on the Web).
We invite you to
check the blog frequently and
follow the
delegation as they
travel.
We also invite
you to ask your
church secretary to
put a notice in your
Sunday announcements
and church
newsletter to let
members know about
this blog (http://lutheransinindia.blogspot.com/)
and the exciting
celebration of 300
years of Lutheranism
in India, and to
keep this group of
travelers and the
Lutheran Church in
India in your
prayers.
Women of the ELCA
participants on the
trip include Ruth
Fairchild, vice
president of the
Northern Illinois
Synodical Women's
Organization; Terri
Lackey, managing
editor, Lutheran
Woman Today
magazine; and Esther
Prabhakar, vice
president, Northern
Illinois Synod,
ELCA. |
