Dear LAMPa Advocates,
  

In 2013 your advocacy worked to promote a hunger-free Commonwealth,

adding your voices to reduce poverty, halt predatory lending, expand school breakfast and increase affordable housing in Pennsylvania.  

 

 Look for the annual Pennsylvania Bishops' Appeal letter inviting your year-end financial gift to support our ministry of advocacy.* This year's letter includes LAMPa's new brochure with an advocacy poster for display.  You can also

Your gifts ensure we can continue to engage Lutherans to promote wise and just policy on behalf of the most vulnerable. We  regret that partners at Lutheran Services in Pennsylvania were inadvertently missed in the list of funding partners for LAMPa in the Bishops' letter. We are thankful for their generous support.

In Christ,

 

Amy, Tracey and Paul
