The Southwestern Pennsylvania synod is our partner synod in the ELCA. My friend and mentor Bishop Kurt Kusserow shared on August 13th this reflection on Florence Nightingale and her import both on nursing and the connections of Lutheran communities in the United States. He writes…

“As we commemorate the life and work of Florence Nightingale this August, let us also give thanks for the dedicated teams of nurses and directors and all leaders whose difficult and diligent work continues to renew our society.”

I resoundingly concur. #NTNL #SWPA #InMissionTogether
