Lately, I’ve been sitting with a question I didn’t expect: Could God be calling me to ordained ministry? I’m not sure what the answer is yet. But the question keeps showing up in quiet prayers, in conversations, in glimpses of possibility.

Elon Musk and DOGE are now publicly targeting Lutheran groups for cuts.
Among those listed: Global Refuge (formerly LIRS), one of 6 faith-based groups that have long helped the govt resettle refugees.
Not clear why Musk contends this funding, which is longstanding and well known, is "illegal."
