Global Mission
In December 2007, the Church Council voted to support Kate Lawler and her husband David Wunsch in their missionary work in South America. Kate and David are supported by the I-K Synod and various ELCA congregations, now including us! Kate was part of Candy and Linda's mission group in Chile.
MEET KATE AND DAVID
Kate and David serve as the ELCA Global Mission Regional Representatives for South America. Their primary responsibility is to work with Lutheran brothers and sisters in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Peru, and Uruguay.
