Dr. Collver is in the Ukraine visiting with  the Lutheran churches there.  Interesting history.   We don’t hear a lot about the Russian invasion that is going on now, but the Ukraine has had a tough history.  Lutherans have been there from the beginning and continue their witness to Christ and the Cross.  They are another group of Christians trying to be faithful in the midst of power politics.  They may not be persecuted now but they have been.  Groups that are persecuted can be forgotten if we let them be.  Let us not do that.  Right now around the world Christians are more persecuted than any other religious group.  Speak up.
