This summer we plan to visit congregations and other
community gatherings to give a presentation on our work for the ELCA in East
Africa. We will concentrate our visits on our supporting congregations in
Illinois, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Our itinerary is below; however, there
are still a few events pending. We are greatly looking forward to meeting new
people and greeting old friends.
Thank you for your prayers and support.
