Coming up in the January Moments for Mission

Readers,

Last Sunday, I worshiped with the Rev. Andy Willis and the people of St. Christopher's Community Church of Steamboat Island near Olympia. Pictured is Willis, wife Grete and son Trygve Benjamin Willis, who at 6 months already has two teeth.

In January, the synod newsletter Moments for Mission continues its series featuring its eight new worshiping groups. I'll look at the two federated Lutheran/Episcopal church starts, St. Christopher's being one and Faith Community Church of Kingston being the other.

We'll also have the first of three pieces about the upcoming bishop-election process. I met with the Rev. Nina Body of Bethlehem Lutheran Church of Tacoma on Sunday, as well. She laid out for me the first steps of the process, which she is leading.

Lastly, we'll look at The Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd's 20th anniversary of its after-school tutoring program.

Contact me if you want to receive the newsletter but are not.
