Dear brothers and sisters in Christ Jesús, (translated from Spanish)
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ Jesús,
I greet you with love in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope that you are in good health, along with the other families of the Texas-Louisiana Gulf Coast Synod. My name is AIDA PALOMINO and I am the Future Seekers coordinator of the congregation Cristo Salvador in Lima.
The reason for my letter is to greet you and at the same time to thank you in the name of the children of our congregation. We are very happy for the $2,800 that we received. I know that everywhere the situation is difficult, but we are satisfied with what we received. With the money we have been able to buy supplies and uniforms for 28 children. And we have used the money left over for the Saturday children’s Bible school that I teach from 9:00 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. Then from 10:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. we pay a first level math professor to teach the children, and after that we give the children a healthy lunch.
Please receive my apology for my delay in writing to you. The reason is because I don’t have a computer at home and it is difficult to go to an internet booth. Apart from that we are all content and happy.
I say goodbye with much love and greetings from all the children.
Sincerely,
AIDA PALOMINO
Future Seekers Coordinator,
Congregacion Cristo Salvador
Lima, Peru
The November 2008 Mission Offering went to support the Future Seekers program at Cristo Salvador Lutheran Church in Lima, Peru. Our synod and the ILEP (Iglesia Luterana Evangelica de Peru) are companion synods.
