OUR STORY
Needs in South Asia
Educational resources and good teaching are high in demand, not only in South Asia, but globally. There is a short supply of teachers, and many of our best educational Lutheran books remain unavailable online or in South Asia, due to copyright restrictions. We hope to help, by targeting the most urgent needs and requests for teaching and publications, to the extent God gives us the strength, opportunity, and ability.
The Ongoing Mission
In the last year, Pastor Edward Naumann has been working continuously, helping to publish five books, totaling more than 5,000 print copies for distribution in South Asia, and making three visits to overseas partners. As SALM Director, he continues to serve in the same way, but with prayerful assistance from supporters of SALM, and the board of directors.
Working with Partners
None of this work is done in isolation, but everything stems organically from cooperation and interaction with partners in South Asia, as well as globally. SALM is listening directly to the voices of our overseas partners, and striving to help in ways that are most beneficial, not imposing or insisting on anything, but responding to needs and requests, and teaching where it is welcomed and needed, where God opens the door and provides the opportunity for us to serve.
