Synod visit to Tulear, Madagascar
The Tulear Synod of Madagascar has been our companion synod for many years, allowing us to form relationships and visit Lutherans in that region. President Modeste RAZAFIMAHATRATRA of Tulear will be among our guests, and this is our first time welcoming him to our home!
THANK YOU
The expense of this trip was subsidized in part by the generous offering given at our synod assembly this year. Congregations and individuals gave over $5,000 to demonstrate our love for our companion synod and make this visit possible!
