On Sunday August 12th, 2012 (one week ago) I was the guest preacher at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Grand Mound, IA. Pastor Arthur Rickman has a strong interest in Lutheran missions and wanted this congregation to hear about St. Silas before he himself heads to the Dominican Republic. More information on his work can be found at http://www.lcms.org/rickman The congregation in Grand Mound was very welcoming and eager to hear about the mission start. At the end of the service they collected an offering to go toward the capital campaign the District is running to support St. Silas and other mission starts in Iowa District East. After service I presented on St. Silas in the church hall, a bit longer than I normally do as there were many good questions. Thank you for warmly receiving my family and me and for joining in planting St. Silas Lutheran Church!
In Christ
