Special Offering at Northern Illinois Synod Assembly
Bishop Jeffrey Clements challenged each congregation in the Northern IL Synod to make a
donation to the ELCA “Always Being Made New” five year campaign that supports new and
expanded churchwide ministries around the world. The gifts will assist communities to grow
in faith, form new leaders, welcome our neighbors, overcome malaria, confront hunger and
poverty and more. Trinity’s collection on June 2nd brought in $191.02.
The Bishop’s challenge to raise $10,000 was
exceeded at NIS Assembly!
At the assembly, congregations and individuals
of the Northern Illinois Synod shared
$23,059.07 for the Synod Assembly offering!
Additional gifts have been promised.
