Suffering is a common theme in today’s world, whether it be in the church, in the community, in our own lives or that of our relatives. In the midst of suffering, conversation about situations can be difficult.  Both church workers and caregivers need encouragement and reminders of how God is with us and cares for us.  We give thanks today that the VDMA Project was able to send a Spanish version of Good News magazine issue 23 – El Sufrimiento – to over 300 pastors and seminary students in the Latin America Caribbean Region. We also thank everyone at Good News magazine for their work in making their resources available to LCMS Missions.
