Monday evening I received a text from Bishop Michael Rinehart of the Texas/Louisiana Gulf Coast synod. They are global partners with the Lutheran Church in Peru and their Pastor/President (Bishop equivalent) Pedro Bullon’s flight had been cancelled. As such he was going to be stranded at DFW for the night.

Working with leaders in our Conferencia Latina NT-NL ELCA and our DEM Irma Bañales we were able to get Pastor Bullon lodging for the night.

As his flight to Lima is not until Tuesday evening we were able to have lunch with Pastor Bullon and hear about the work being done in Peru by the Lutheran Church. A joy to meet another global partner and to show a little NT-NL Synod, ELCA hospitality. So grateful that when I reached out for assistance our leaders eagerly agreed to help as needed. #NTNL #InMissionTogether #EnMisionJuntos
