2026 Synod Trip to Tanzanian Companion Synod UKD

Have your ever wondered where the money we give to the Ulanga Kilombero Diocese (UKD) goes to support? Have you wanted to go see, first hand, why we support the hospital and school a half a world away, in Tanzania?  Or where is Tanzania, for that matter?  If this questions, or some similar have been ones you have asked yourself, now is the time to act.

This week we turn an important corner in the church year. We will mark the coming arrival of Spring by deepening our prayer for six weeks before celebrating Christ's resurrection. And we begin this period of fasting and prayer by reminding one another that we will die. We are mortal. We fall into sin. This is part of our humanity and leads us to rejoice in the mercies of God all the more.
