CHICAGO (ELCA) -- The buildings of some Evangelical Lutheran Church
in America (ELCA) congregations in Minot, N.D., have been flooded, as
have the homes of many members. Yet ELCA leaders and members remain
resilient and express hope as they wait for record floodwaters to recede
before they can assess the effects of the disaster.
