Leaving-Lusmarina&Fico

The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Geneva

said goodbye to its previous Pastor, Lusmarina Campos Garcia, one year ago in September, after 9 years as our Pastor, friend, and confident. Pastor Lusmarina returned to her home town of Rio de Janeiro together with her husband Fico.

Many of the events surrounding their departure were video recorded – some of them have been available since September 2012.
Others are now available to recall those events, as we keep Lusmarina and Fico in our prayers and in our hearts.
