Lutheran Disaster Response Flood Relief

August 31, 2017 by

Our prayers and financial support are needed to help both with flooding in the Gulf Coast area of the US, and in South Asia where more than 1,200 people are feared to have died and 40 million are estimated to have been affected by flooding in India, Nepal and Bangladesh.

You can give tax deductible contributions directly to these organizations. You can also write a check to Good Shepherd designated for flood relief and we will send half to Lutheran DIsaster Response for gulf coast flooding and half to Lutheran World Relief for South Asia flooding.

You can respond to Gulf Coast flooding through donations to
Lutheran Disaster Response
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
ELCA Gift Processing Center
P.O. Box 1809
Merrifield, VA 22116-8009; 
https://community.elca.org/lutherandisasterresponse

Gifts to Lutheran Disaster Response, designated for “Hurricane Response – United States” will be used entirely (100 percent) for this disaster until the response is complete.

You can respond to flooding in South Asia through donations to 
Lutheran World Relief
P.O. Box 17061
Baltimore, MD 21297-1061.

Postcards: Immigration Issues, September 3

August 30, 2017 by

POSTCARDS: IMMIGRATION ISSUES – SEPTEMBER 3

The Social Justice Committee asks for your help in contacting our U.S. Senators and Representatives concerning three bills before the Congress. The DACA 2017 act would protect the young people who came to the U.S. with their parents as children and now need time to finish their education and begin a career. The RAISE act would drastically change our national policy on immigration. Rather than family unification, it would be based on the immigrants’ jobs, education, income and age. Finally the Sanctuary act would remove local control of police concerning immigration enforcement. Postcards, pens and a sheet of information will be available during the Social Hour.
