In reply to Timothy C. Schenks.

Timothy, I also do not know why LC-MS is supporting LIRS since it is technically not a Lutheran charity. In fact, it is not a charity at all since it is over 90% funded with tax dollars and really is a government contractor. It is disturbing that LC-MS is indoctrinating young people about the positives of LIRS without also telling them that this is a multi-million dollar resettlement business that imposes huge costs to taxpayers.
