One way for congregations to maintain an on-going and personal relationship with the Konde Diocese is to become a companion congregation. When a companion relationship is established your congregation will be able to be in direct contact with a congregation in the Konde Diocese. This relationship includes the exchange of letters, prayer petitions, ideas, pictures, and gifts. Currently there are 35 such companion relationships in the Lower Susquehanna Synod. In some cases, youth groups, women’s groups, or choirs have become companions.

Throughout the years companion congregations have exchanged letters, prayers, sermons, gifts, and resources. In several cases, representatives of synod congregations have visited their companion congregations in the Konde Diocese..

If your congregation would like to become a companion congregation, contact Pastor Judith McKee at jmckee@lss-elca.org or call (717) 848-3419 or 843-7897.
