Prayer

Congregations and individuals are encouraged to pray for:

• leaders of the ILAG,
• 17 Guatemalan congregations,
• congregational pastors and lay evangelists,
• women's ministry,
• youth ministry,
• two elementary schools

Communications

Regular contact with your companion ILAG congregation will further strengthen the relationship and might include the following:

• Send your church newsletter so the ILAG congregation can learn about your ministry and pray for you,
• Send personal letters,
• Send pictures of your church and congregational life,
• Send Sunday School artwork or greetings from congregational members,
• Send a copy of your latest pictoral directory so they can see the faces of your congregation and learn about your history.

Communications should be directed to the Lutheran Center, which will forward the communication to the companion congregation.
