Screen Shot 2016-03-14 at 3.38.01 PMEach year Lutheran Advocacy Ministry in Pennsylvania (LAMPa) gathers members for a lobby day at the Capitol in Harrisburg on a particular issue.  This year, it’s climate change.  Their advocacy day will be April 18 (Lutherans, learn more here).  The day before they gather for an education event. This year LAMPa is teaming up with PA IPL and the national ELCA “glocal event team” for celebration and more.  Click the image for a PDF poster that will tell you more about the optional afternoon canoe trip or tree planing, too.
