Sometimes we just need ideas. Perhaps in your congregation you have seen specific, unique acts of caring for the pastor and/or his family. Others could benefit by reading about it. Share your story by writing a paragraph and sending it to us. We will post them here online and some may appear in future print issues.

Tim Ysteboe, a Lutheran Brethren pastor who also taught at Lutheran Brethren Seminary and served in the Church of the Lutheran Brethren's Office of the President, had a labor of love for at least the last 15 years of his life here. The result of his labor is the book We Believe: Commentary on the Statement of Faith, to be released in June. Tim Ysteboe went home to his Lord in November 2009 at the age of 61. As a child, Tim was a charter member of Triumph Lutheran Brethren Church in Moorhead, MN. After graduating from Lutheran Brethren Seminary, he pastored Lutheran Brethren congregations in LeSueur, MN and Succusaunna, NJ.
