| LCMS Partnership Assisting LHM-Thailand in Helping Flood Victims
St. Louis, MO, Nov. 3, 2011 — Many people caught in the worst flooding to hit Southeast Asia in 50 years will receive relief supplies made possible through the collaborative efforts of LCMS World Relief and Human Care (WR-HC) and Lutheran Hour Ministries. An initial emergency-relief grant from WR-HC of $10,000 will assist Lutheran Hour Ministries in the distribution of Flood Relief Packs being carried out by LHM's ministry center in Thailand.
"LCMS World Relief and Human Care is pleased to be able to provide much needed relief in Thailand in partnership with Lutheran Hour Ministries," says the Rev. John Fale, interim co-executive director of the LCMS Office of International Mission. "Through these kinds of cooperative and collaborative opportunities, we are able to strengthen the capacity of one another in a way that most effectively provides tangible mercy accompanied by proclamation of the Gospel. I ask that the LCMS continue to ask the Lord of the harvest to grant His blessings upon our work together." LCMS World Relief and Human Care is a part of the LCMS Office of International Mission.
