This past Sunday, July 13, our former vicar, Noah Russell, was ordained and installed as associate pastor at King of Kings Lutheran Church in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Also installed at King of Kings Lutheran Church on Sunday was his wife, Ieva Russell, who will serve as a deaconess at the church and Marion Ministry & Outreach Center, an independent non-profit that was launched and sponsored by King of Kings. The non-profit provides emergency diapers to low-income mothers and families. There to support them was Pastor Scott Giger.
We are so excited to see where God has led the Russells and wish them every good blessing in their new ministry! If you would like to send them a note of congratulations or encouragement, you can do so to King of Kings Lutheran Church, 3275 N. Center Point Rd., Cedar Rapids, IA 52411.
