Sister Synod Coordinator
A few years ago, Stephanie Wilson traversed the seas to visit our Sister Synod of Madagascar, off the south-eastern African coast. Stephanie had the opportunity to meet and work with women and families in Madagascar. If you have questions about how to help the Betela seminary and to support ELCA mission work in Madagascar, Stephanie is a great person to talk to!
At our 2002 convention, we passed several resolutions indicating our commitment to support relations with our Sister Synod of Madagascar.
Prison Ministry Coordinator
In the year 2000, resolutions to help support prison ministry in our synod were passed. Carole Cameron has indicated a special interest in helping to rejuvenate our commitment to incarcerated women. If you would like to participate in a program that brings the hope of Christ into the lives of women in prison, then please contact Pastor Emily Cardin of New Beginnings Church on 303-831-7023. New Beginnings Church is sponsored by the Rocky Mountain Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), the Episcopal Diocese of Colorado and Prison Congregations of America.
