In December 2007, the Church Council voted to support Kate Lawler and her husband David Wunsch in their missionary work in South America. But, it was on January 3, 2010 that we finally got to meet them and hear about their work in South America. This was a very exciting day for us, especially for Linda and Candy who were with Kate on their mission trip to Chile in August 2007.
