Reformation Lutheran Church of Milwaukee

Milwaukee, WI
Reformation Lutheran begins their 25th year of the Summer Youth Work Program on June 29. In addition to cleaning up and beautifying their neighborhood, they will work in their vegetable garden located near the church. Working youth at Reformation will feed hungry people with their garden produce. Youths, ages 9-18, will be the "Gardening Angels" for their neighbors on 35th Street! The youth neighborhood garden is something new this year! The youth are sowing seeds in hopes of God’s harvest.
Our Brown Bag Appeal was a great success!
Thank you for your donations for bottled water, bag lunches, and for other youth program needs.
Our Summer GIving Tree campaign for books bags and school supplies was a great success! Thank you for your donations of book bags and supplies for our partners!

Kikatiti parish is served by two pastors: Zelotte Pallangyo (pah-lahn-gee-oh) who is 56 years old; a widow with 4 daughters, 3 sons, and 2 grandchildren. Pastor Pallangyo commutes 20 miles to Kikatiti. He also serves as District Pastor where two days a week he visits and supports the other parishes in his district. Jonas Mbise (mm-bee-see) is 55 years old; he is married to Rebecca and has 5 children and one grandchild living with them. He walks a mile to the main parish and also farms to supplement his income. He hopes to one day afford a truck.
The parish is also served by 6 evangelists - one for each of the 5 sub parishes; one with Christian education. The evangelists serve like pastors - leading worship, preaching, and providing pastoral care to members. They are: Mungure (moon-goo-ree) at Kikatiti Centre; Mbise (mm-bee-see) at Jeriko; Kaaya at Kitefu; Rachel Nnko (nn-koh) at North; Wiljofrey at Old; Nasari with education. ASANTE SANA (thank you)
After visiting the Kikatiti Parish in Tanzania last summer, the Our Savior's delegation promised to enlist the help of this congregation in praying for our new friends in Christ. Believing God would honor your prayers, our new friends desire you to pray for them.
We continue to be inspired by the faith and friendship experienced with our partners at the Kikatiti parish. Help us grow this partnership! For information contact Pastor Karen.
