Moving Toward Completion of the Project
in Palanga, Lithuania
The project that LCMS Human Care and Iowa District East
embarked upon back in 2003 is nearing completion. As you can see from some of the photos, the
remaining work on the interior is nearing completion. With a $200,000 gift from Human Care, the
project will be completed in 2012. We
are hoping to have the dedication in July of this year.
We also have two
smaller related projects which deal with providing furnishings for the
facility. There are ten sleeping rooms
which need to be furnished at a cost of $800 per room. 4 of these rooms are already paid for, so six
rooms are available to furnish. The
other related project is to provide the tables and chairs for the meeting room
area. The cost of that project totals
$6,200. If you wish to contribute to
either of these projects, make your check payable to: Iowa District East. Please note in the memo line that this is for
room furnishings and send it to Iowa District East, 1100 Blairs Ferry Road,
Marion, IA 52302. If you desire more
information please contact Dr. Dean Rothchild at deanrothchild@lcmside.org or
