Members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) are Ambassadors for Christ: In Mission for Others, says National Bishop Susan Johnson. In a letter to the church, Bishop Johnson thanks members of the church for their commitment and participation in the ELCIC Praise Appeal as it enables the church to be a witness in the world, responding in mission and ministry.

"We are Ambassadors for Christ as we are involved in mission with our Companion Synods and partner churches," Bishop Johnson highlights in the letter.

Dear Members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada:

Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

This is the year that all five synods will be meeting in convention and will be considering next steps in the structural renewal process. Last summer the National Convention approved in principle the outline for structural renewal. Now we will be seeing specifics in terms of implications for synods and for congregations.

I have a confession to make to you. This process of restructuring began by being finance driven.

The following letter is from Paul Gehrs, Assisant to the National Bishop - ELCIC, Justice and Leadership and also Rev Andre Lavergne, Assistant to the National Bishop - ELCIC , Ecumenical and Interfaith.

The national office would like to make you aware of the opportunity for young adults to apply to be stewards for the World Council of Churches.
