A story out of our Metropolitan New York Synod for our ELCA stewardship ministry, in celebration of the Peterman Award.
Have you ever met a person of faith who shines with the light of Christ even in the hardest of times and places?
After meeting the Rev. Leticia Alanis, pastor of Unidad y Fe Lutheran Mission in the Queens borough of New York City, I was in awe of her experiences, her challenges, her love for others and her profound mission of building community. Those qualities may explain why she won the Peterman Award for Stewardship of Time, Resources, and Advocacy.
