Burke Perry, B.A. ’00 and his wife, Eva Mercado-Perry, along with their daughters Rebekah and Kristiana, were blessed to visit family and friends this June in Davao City and Medina, Misamis Oriental—Eva’s hometown—as well as the beautiful island of Camiguin. Burke shares: “It was a joy to worship with brothers and sisters in Christ at Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church in Davao City (Lutheran Church in the Philippines), and at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Medina. Both are partner churches in fellowship with the LCMS. We were also blessed to reconnect with brothers, uncles, aunts, many cousins, and second cousins, and to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Mindanao—from its beaches and waterfalls to the peaceful countryside.”
