PLEASE REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING IN YOUR PRAYERS...- Please pray for our online program at Augsburg Lutheran Seminary. This program began in the summer of 2011. I have been coordinator of this program since its beginning, and this has been a challenge in many ways. However, we thank God that the program has slowly been growing and is doing well.
- We began our new semester at the Theological Community of Mexico and Augsburg Lutheran Seminary at the end of January. Please remember in your prayers both the students and the professors who will be returning to class. Also, please pray especially for our Director (Spanish, "Rector") at the Theological Community, Rev. Dan González, who just completed his first year in this new responsibility.

- Sofía Tenorio, who was ordained in 2009 and had been serving at the Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd, has taken a call to a different congregation in Mexico City, Iglesia Luterana Gracia (Grace Lutheran Church). The previous pastor, Rev. Basilio Alvarez, died a few years ago and they had been without a pastor since then. It is a very small congregation and Sofía faces a large challenge in building the congregation up again. Please pray that God will give her the strength and guidance in her this new call. For photos of Sofía's installation, see the News page of my web site.
