A new challenging endeavor...
The Lutheran NETwork
Lutheran Disaster Response ND has a vision
to assist in weaving a safety net together among Lutheran entities across
North Dakota and the Red River Valley region in western Minnesota.
An initial meeting was held March 16, 2010
at the Oak Grove School Campus - ironically as the sandbags were being put
in place for the threat of the Red River. Another meeting in western North Dakota
was
April 22 at the Lewis & Clark Interpretative Center in Washburn.
