In December 2016, Jean Wahlstrom and Marvin Kananen volunteered for a month at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (NELM) in Rock Point, Arizona, an ELCA project.
In March 2020, a Team from Saint Andrew’s served for a week at NELM, helping with various projects: construction, preparing and serving meals, organizing the school library, and establishing relationship with the Navajo community.
The main construction project was to renovate an apartment at the Mission to be ADA compliant.
They were touched by the love of God and the amazing Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission community.
Below is a slideshow of their week (note: there is no sound).
