Divine Call Information On Sunday January 26, 2020, PoP voters elected to call a graduating Candidate from one of the Lutheran Seminaries. The process is in the hands of LCC leaders who decide where candidates receive their first call. We will have to be patient since it will be late May when the Candidates are assigned. Please pray for all of the Candidates as well as our church leaders. If you have questions concerning this process please talk to one of the elders or Pastor Krestick.

They will address your needs and concerns to the appropriate Pastor.
