Bishop Eaton to join next GCS Hunger Leaders call

Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton has accepted an invitation from the GCS Hunger Leaders Network to join their monthly network call on Tuesday, August 29 at 6:00 pm.

The Rev. Elizabeth Eaton, who last joined the GCS Hunger Leaders for a network meeting in January, 2022, shared wisdom, prayer, encouragement, enthusiasm and amusing anecdotes. Among other things, she said at the time that 96% of our Lutheran congregations participate in some kind of feeding ministry. Will she have new statistics to share? Funny stories?

Bishop Eaton joined the GCS Hunger Leaders Network call on January 25, 2022.

In addition to Bishop Eaton on Tuesday, the network is privileged to welcome the Rev. Katie Sexton-Wood, executive director of the Arizona Faith Network, who will share news about their work with the Heat Relief Network, and updates from AFN.

If you’ve thought of joining the GCS Hunger Leaders Network calls but haven’t yet gotten around to it, now’s a good time! The virtual meetings are held monthly on the last Tuesday of the month from 6:00 - 7:00 pm AZ (PDT) time. Each meeting consists of a short devotion, update from a guest at ELCA Churchwide — this time, Bishop Eaton! — and an update from a local hunger ministry. In addition, the meetings include upcoming events, resources and grants, and updates from hunger ministries across the synod. It’s well worth an hour of your time each month!
