June 30 Give thanks for Laura Ehrlich who is serving the Evangelical Lutheran Church in the Republic of Namibia (ELCRN) AIDS program. She helps coordinate the HIV/AIDS program, awareness building, and training of all home-based care providers for the program. Pray also for the companion synods to the ELCRN – the ELCA Northeastern Iowa 1and New Jersey Synods – that they may be strengthened in their witness and relationship-building.
