The “flame was fanned” August 26 during the Hearts on Fire/Fanning the Flame event at Oak Grove Lutheran School in Fargo. Folks from thirty-three ministries, congregations and parishes were represented, sparking the event with their presence and participation. May the flame of the Holy Spirit continue to be fanned throughout the synods.
