Dear Partners in Ministry,
I invite your prayers for our sisters and brothers of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Martensdale, Iowa. The 108 year-old church facility was consumed by fire the evening of October 27, 2011. The cause of the fire is under investigation. No one was hurt.
We thank our partners, Pastor Keith Lingwall and Pastor Ron Mohr who serve the people of St. Paul Lutheran Church. Include this community in your prayers this weekend, as the whole church gathers in the name of Jesus Christ, who makes all things new.
Questions can be directed to Pastor Eric Carlson, Assistant to the Bishop, at [email protected].
In the Name of Jesus,
Bishop Michael L. Burk
