Companions in Christ
Faith Lutheran Church
Southeastern Iowa Synod
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
Kifula Parish
Mwanga Diocese
Evangelical Lutheran Church In Tanzania
Faith Lutheran Church has been in a companion relationship with the Kifula Parish since 2003. This Companion relationship exists for the purpose of strengthening one another for life and mission within the body of Christ.
Through prayer, study, communication, and exchange of persons and resources, it offers mutual benefit for our respective churches. It opens our eyes to the global challenge that Christ sets before us, calling us to deepen our commitment and discipleship as communities of faith and as individual disciples.
