This card which Ella sent me depicts the Lutheran
Church of Somero. The Chaple is to the left. This picture must have been taken
more than 20 years ago. Now there are many trees between the Church and the
river.
Lutherans are Christians and they are
found throughout the world! They represent the world's third largest
block of Christians and are the oldest Protestants. There are nearly 70
million Lutherans living on every continent, speaking hundreds of
languages. In the USA alone there are more than 12 million Lutheran
Christians.
