Thanks from Red Lake

RED LAKE, Ont. – In recent years, Christ Lutheran Church in Red Lake has slipped past the point of being self-sustainable. The problem is, there are no other Lutheran Church–Canada congregations nearby, so we’ve applied for help from the Synod—and you came to meet our needs.

We just recently went through another year-end process, and in looking at our finances we realized we didn’t stand a chance on our own, so we thank you all for your part in allowing Word and Sacrament ministry to continue in Red Lake. It is much appreciated.

In years past, we had been giving mission remittances to the Synod, and it always felt like it never mattered. We didn’t really know what it went towards because we never really looked into it. Now that we are on the receiving end, we want you to know that it matters, and we thank you for your part in sharing the Word of God to our community.

The members of Christ Lutheran Red Lake
