The Southeastern Synod E-News will go on hiatus over the next couple of weeks due to the Southeastern Synod Council meeting, Leadership Convocation and Women of the ELCA Convention. When we return we hope to share with you stories and pictures from these events, as well as from "God's work. Our Hands." Sunday.
This edition of the E-News is to provide corrections (noted in red) to articles published yesterday. We apologize for the errors. While we have your attention, we decided to take another opportunity to remind you of two important events.
