Bethel Update February 21, 2006

From the PDF:
Late fall Pastor Keith Gunderson of Cando Lutheran Church of Cando, North Dakota asked his church council for a six week leave of absence so that he could help out in hurricane recovery. His church council approved his request. As he announced his plans the following Sunday, there was a visitor in the congregation. She and her husband had previously been stationed at Keesler Air Force Base here in Biloxi. She told Pastor Keith that he had to come to Biloxi to do his work. She explained that she still had many friends in Biloxi and that “these people are devastated by Hurricane Katrina”. She urged him persuading, they are “good people down there”.
