Delegation to Living Waters

Welcome home to our second delegation from St. Thomas who went to visit our friends at Living Waters church in Cherokee, North Carolina! Thank you for helping us continue to build our relationship between our communities. Here are a few photos from their trip, thanks to Dean and Kathleen.

Here are our delegates, Dean, Sydney, Ruth, Pastor Jack, Kathleen and Pastor Jack and Lisa's daughter.

St.Thomas supports the food pantry and clothing available to Living Waters - thank you to the Mission Endowment Fund which provided a financial gift to support fresh fruits and vegetables. Below are photos of the pantry and clothes closet.

Delegates were happy to have time to get to know Pastor Jack and his family more this time and have some time to see the museum and other aspects of the community.

With both delegations, we try to be present to participate in worship, joining together as two ELCA congregations. We are thankful for our friends at Living Waters and that we are one body.

If you would like to be a part of future delegations or to participate in other aspects of our relationship with Living Waters, please let the mission committee or church office know.
