Yippie!

I have good news to share!

I have accepted a six-week contract (April 18-June 3) with Lutheran World Relief to serve as acting director for LWR’s Creative Services Unit.  My work will allow Emily Sollie, the unit’s director, to focus on special projects.  I will spend Monday through Thursday in Baltimore and on Friday through Sunday return to Paul and Park Ridge.

Note for Anne Krentz Organ: I’ll be in the St. Luke’s choir loft on Palm Sunday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

I have a long-time connection to LWR and a deep respect for its mission and its people. As managing editor of Lutheran Woman Today, I had the privilege of working with LWR to introduce Women of the ELCA to Fair Trade coffee. Now there’s a match made in heaven. As guests of LWR regional staff, on a Peruvian mountaintop so high it seemed to touch heaven, Kathryn Sime and I (ELCA World Hunger Appeal staff) were privileged to celebrate justice rolling down like waters…into a 33,000 gallon reservoir (see photos). The connection continues from one generation to another, too.  Our daughter, the Rev. Anne Edison-Albright, is making LWR quilts with her congregation (Redeemer in Stevens Point, Wis.).

I’d be grateful if you shared your travel site (Orbitz, Expedia, Kayak, Bing, Priceline etc.) and Baltimore recommendations and insights with me.

Blessings on your heads!
