Luther Place Members Attend Interfaith Service on Healthcare Reform

On Wednesday, June 24th, about 20 members from Luther Place gathered on Freedom Plaza with hundreds of other faith groups to pray and advocate for healthcare reform.  Bishop Richard Graham from the Metro-DC Synod offered prayers for accessibility, joined by leaders from the Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist communities among others.  The service allowed for many voices to be heard in song, prayer, testimonies, and speakers.  The ELCA Lutheran Church was also represented by Bob Francis - Domestic Issues Advocate from the ELCA Washington Office - who had the opportunity to introduce Congressman Tom Perriello from Virginia.  Over 57 faith groups sponsored this service, and Luther Place was proud to help represent the ELCA with friends from other Lutheran Churches in the area!  See more photos from the event...
