ADLA Assembly, “This Is Us”

Members of ADLA share the importance of gathering together

In July 2023, the ADLA assembly took place in Atlanta. Members engaged in worship, attended educational workshops and conducted official business, including the election of a new governing board. In this video, we hear from some of the assembly attendees about the weekend and the importance of the African Descent Lutheran Association.
