Members of Trinity Ev. Lutheran, Vale, NC, made “Operation Thanks-Giving” cards prior to worship. They mailed 90 cards to Global Mission Support to be distributed as a “random act of thankfulness” to ELCA missionaries. Pr. John Locke writes: “From the preschoolers to the senior seniors, everyone created and sent a greeting, expressing love and thanks to [missionaries]. …We have been blessed to part of this ministry, being able to convey our love, support and thanks to those who carry God’s message of love and redemption to all corners.”

Learn more about Operation Thanks-Giving at  www.elca.org/handinhand.  There’s still time to participate!  We’ll distribute cards for as long as we receive them.
