Share Stories About Farming
LAMPA is working on a resource to connect Lutherans around the state in prayer and story-telling for the specific joys and concerns of the farmers and other agricultural workers whose gifts and skills serve to feed God's people around the country and care for creation all around us. If you have personal stories, joys, concerns, or even pictures to share, contact the office for more information.
