Fifth Sunday Giving for April will go towards the offering shared by Peace at the Southwestern Texas Synod Assembly. This year the Assembly will support the ELCA Fund for Leaders program.
“The ELCA Fund for Leaders scholarship program supports students of tremendous promise attending ELCA seminaries. By making seminary more affordable, the ELCA Fund for Leaders enables more future ministers to go to seminary and helps them graduate with less debt, empowering those whom God calls into ministry to go and serve as the church needs and the Holy Spirit leads.
Each of us has a unique role to play in realizing our commitment as Lutherans to ‘always being made new.’ Your gift to the ELCA Fund for Leaders ensures that highly talented individuals will be able to answer the call to leadership for this church and for our future.”
All cash and any designated checks placed in the offering on April 29th will be donated to the ELCA Fund for Leaders.
