Minute for Mission
The Arcot Lutheran Church, one of LPGM’s partners in India is located in the center of one of the most destructive cyclones hitting South India in recent history. Cyclone Thane pummeled the southeastern coast of Tamil Nadu on December 30, 2011, seven years after the same region was devastated by the massive 2004 tsunami. Many lives will be affected for quite some time due to the devastation. Please keep our brothers and sisters in Christ in your prayers.
