Thank you for your generous hearts!
The people of the Northwest Synod of Wisconsin have consistently shown tremendous love for the partnership we have with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Malawi. For more than 25 years congregations have committed to visiting Malawi, hosting guests, building wells, sustaining feeding centers, engaging in building projects, supporting pastors' education, and providing relief during natural disasters. In 2024, we made a goal of $40,000 during the Water is Life campaign - enough to help build two new solar-powered, deep-drilled bore wells. And, you let your hearts overflow with generosity, sharing financial gifts totaling almost $120,000!!! THANK YOU for your support!
We continue to seek ways to sustain the ministries we do together, and to develop new and meaningful ways we can accompany our siblings in Malawi. If you or your congregation feel called to support these programs or if you have questions about our partnership, please contact the companion synod coordinator, Deacon Laura Ramlow (lramlow@nwswi.org).
