Because of Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church’s faithful mission support, the Grand Canyon Synod is celebrating six ordinations in 2025, with a seventh anticipated in December. This is the most in our synod's history, and for the first time ever, we've welcomed two deacons into Word and Service Ministry. Your stewardship is actively empowering leaders across our synod.
Bishop Hutterer has written a letter to share the remarkable story of one of these newly ordained leaders, Pastor Solomon Kuch. His journey from refugee to rostered pastor will help you understand what's possible when God's call meets your congregation's generosity.

I invite you to read and share this story in your newsletter, bulletin, or council meeting to highlight the tangible difference giving makes in raising up leaders across our synod. Thank you for being church together!
