Some Easter scenes from Salishan Eastside Lutheran Mission




Five people were baptized in front of about 80 congregants Easter morning at Salishan Eastside Lutheran Mission, with the Revs. Ron Vignec and Gene Wiegman in charge.
It was a brilliant and sun-filled start of a new day. I spent time after the service with Lindsay, a young woman just out of rehab, Lesta Rogers, who's the president of the congregation that started in 1985, and state Rep. Steve Conway, who says Salishan serves as the only Lutheran presence on the east side.
