Three ELCA pastors are climbing Mount Kilimanjaro July 14-21 to help the Metropolitan New York Synod raise $100,000 for the ELCA Malaria Campaign.
The climbers are Jack Horner, assistant to the synod bishop; Carol Fryer, director of spiritual care and church relations for The Wartburg Adult Care Community; and M. Wyvetta Bullock, executive for administration in the ELCA Office of the Presiding Bishop.
Since their six-day trip to the summit will take them 19,340 feet above sea level, they're asking for pledges of one penny per foot ($193.40) to provide mosquito nets, medicine and more.
