South Asian ministry

April 27, 2010 · Print This Article

We are reaching out to the large South Asian community in our neighborhood! In partnership with the New Jersey Synod, the ELCA Division of Evangelical Outreach and Congregational Mission, the Hudson County Cluster of ELCA churches, and private donors, we will be establishing a “satellite congregation” among the South Asian community that will meet and worship at St. Paul. David Achariam, the mission developer, is to be ordained on May 16. He will begin by building a neighborhood fellowship for businesspeople in our neighborhood. Watch this site for more information on this exciting ministry!
