“Lutheran is not only a church that focuses on preaching the gospel in this country,” he said. “We understand the issues and the challenges our people and the society are facing in the country, we also trying to address some of these issues and challenges to ensure we manifest God’s love by bringing peace and joy to those who are suffering and in need of help.
“I am pleased with the effort and the courage our congregation and leaders in Papua District had put to come up with a district corporate plan,” Urame said.
