NEWS, NEWS, NEWS: As we were preparing this BLOG, we read in the LCMS Web-site that President Gerald Kieschnick was re-elected as President of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod for a third term of three years in the LCMS Convention, Houston, TX. Bishop Walter Obare is there, representing the ELCK. Our prayers are with them while they are gathered to study God's Word, to decide several matters about the church and its mission and to enjoy the Christian felloship.
