Margaret Kritsch Anderson
When Margaret Kritsch Anderson went to work in her capacity as a law enforcement ranger for the National Park Service on that fateful day, January 1, 2012, she could not have known she would give up her earthly life at the hands of a deranged individual. She left behind to mourn, her husband, Eric, children, Anna and Katie, her parents, Pastor Paul and Dorothy Kritsch, her siblings, Peter and Sarah and their families and a host of friends and loved ones. The Fund was started in her memory to assist Eric in the establishment of college funds and in meeting daily living expenses for Anna and Katie. The children were very young when Margaret died and her loss continues to be a major void in their young lives. Please be generous in your giving for this family and continue to remember them in your prayers as they cope with this tragedy. For most of us New Year's Day is joyous and a celebration of new beginnings. For the Anderson, Kritsch(s) and Beylon families they are a tragic reminder of the fragility of earthly life. |

Doctor Kristen Schmaltz
Dr. Kristen Schmaltz, serving as a medical missionary in Guinea, West Africa. She works to meet the medical needs of Guineans as a medical team member of Compassion Evangelical Hospital. Planning for the hospital started in 2004 and it is now up and running. The Out-Patient Clinic opened on November 28, 2007. The hospital was established with the purpose, “To give the best medical and surgical care that can be given according to the means that God provides and to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with all who come.” Kristen was born in Lansing, Michigan, but considers Christ Memorial Lutheran Church in Houston, Texas, her home congregation. We are proud to say that Kristen was a member of Redeemer from 1969-1981 and was also confirmed at Redeemer. She studied biology and psychology at Albright College, Pennsylvania, received her medical degree from the University of Texas in San Antonio, and did her residency in pediatrics at Children’s Hospital of Michigan in Detroit. Please pray that Dr. Schmaltz will be able to offer the medical care and also the spiritual care they need in Jesus. Please pray for all our medical missionaries, asking God to use them as effective witnesses of His love in Jesus Christ and keeping them safe. |
