Update on Wilken/Schwarz Fund
Our counters counted tonight, and I believe that with tonight's total, the account here at St. Paul's has received a tad more than $34,000 since its inception. That's not counting whatever was given through the Paypal Account on Wittenberg Trail, which has raised $14,000. Thus, a total of $48,000. God bless you all for your generosity! Funds have literally come in from all over - not just the United States, but Australia, Japan, Austria, and Canada.

After reading the latest Augsburg 1530 blog, I was wondering - will Jeff & Todd be needing more funds for attorneys in the days ahead? I for one, would be happy to continue to contribute to help with that too. I hope that is not too personal of a question?
Yesterday our congregation voted to take the money we *were* going to send to Synod ($1,200) and send it to the Wilken/Schwarz Fund instead.
A very wise man said to me last week about this fund, "This proves Lutherans do good works."
Thanks to all for your generosity.
Praise and thanks to God!
This is wonderful, but it's only $24,000 per family so far. You'll want to keep those gifts coming.
Thanks for the update, Pastor Weedon.
Glory to God!
Let's keep it going!
