 May 7, 2008— YANGON, Myanmar: Word has come in from Myanmar (formerly Burma) that the staff at Lutheran Hour Ministries (LHM)-Myanmar is safe, following the devastating cyclone last weekend. Lutheran Hour Ministries area counselor for Asia, Gunya Na Thalang, received an e-mail from an LHM-Myanmar staff member on Tuesday, May 6.
The message read, "Praise the Lord! The LHM-Myanmar director and her family are safe. Our houses are fine. Most houses around here are severely damaged. The LHM office is now closed for one week." She added that they are still trying to get in touch with others in the community.
If you are a pastor, church musician, or anyone interested in the church’s worship, please join us for this enriching week of worship, education, and fellowship. There will also be workshops of benefit to church secretaries, Sunday school teachers, and other volunteers in the church, so please spread the word and tell others about this opportunity.
 On July 24-27, 2008, the International Lutheran Laymen’s League will hold its annual convention in Lexington, Ky.—the heart of bluegrass country. This event is expected to draw over 1500 Lutherans from across the U.S. and Canada.
 Actions and happenings from sessions of the 63rd Regular Convention of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod are summarized in these media releases. The convention met July 14-19, 2007, in Houston, Texas.
