Dear President Iteffa Gobena,

Grace and peace from Jesus Christ, our risen Lord.

I am writing you to express our appreciation of sending Rev. and Mrs. Matti and Anna-Kaarina Palmu to conduct the marriage counseling seminar at Hsinchu and Kaohsiung in Taiwan. Both seminars were well attended. The participants were from Lutheran as well as from other sister congregations. Many of them shared with me how much they had been benefited from the seminar and how their marital relationship been renewed.

On behalf of the China Lutheran Seminary we would like to thank you for sharing this edifying resource with us and for enhancing the participants’ marital bonds. We are thankful that our seminary has a close partnership with the FELM. It is our prayer that through such program the cooperation between our seminary and the EECMY will be strengthened.

May the Lord richly bless the EECMY and your ministry of proclamation and wholistic development.

With warm regards,

Sincerely in Christ,

President, CLS
