Received this update 9-23-05 from Pastor Rothchild--
Ellie,
I just got off the phone with Pastor Lofthus of Faith Lutheran Church and School. Their enrollment at the beginning of the school year was 105. They project an enrollment of 45 when the school hopefully reopens on October 10th. As to financial assistance they could use $350,000 to help them through the current school year. That is a worst case scenario. We have not yet received any directs as of this morning. I don’t know what the situation would be in IDW. I also shared with Pastor Lofthus the concern from DP Kurtis Schultz about trying to be equitable. I don’t know if we could pledge a portion of the monies which we might get from LCMS Human Care. What are your thoughts? We do not have those kinds of funds on hand here in IDE. He would like some sort of answer next week.
Peace only in Christ Jesus,
Rev. Dean F. Rothchild
