In this role, Dale serves as the pastor of St. Michael the Archangel Lutheran Church, an English-language congregation in Prague, which serves the LCMS Eurasia regional office staff and many English-speaking expats living in Prague. In addi¬tion, Dale serves as the Eurasia regional chaplain and provides pastoral service to the LCMS missionaries serving in the Silesian region of the Czech Republic. Through the relationships formed, Dale and Suzanne seek to share the Gospel with the people of the Czech Republic.

The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod Inc., including Mission Central (in Mapleton, Iowa), is an IRS registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity.

A contribution designated (restricted) for a specific purpose, when accepted, will be used only to fund expenses related to that purpose. Occasionally, we may receive more in contributions for a particular purpose than can be wisely applied to it in the foreseeable future or the purpose may cease to be feasible. In these situations, the LCMS will make reasonable attempts to contact contributors to apply their contribution toward another aspect of ministry that aligns closely the contributor’s goals and values. If a contributor cannot be contacted, the LCMS will use the gift to meet a similar pressing need that most closely matches the contributor's original intent.

Consistent with Synod Board policy and in recognition of a more challenging economic and philanthropic/fundraising environment due to inflationary pressure, not more than 12.5 percent of any charitable contribution will be allocated to administering gifts and communicating with contributors (compared to a not-more-than ceiling of 10.5 percent the previous fiscal year). Contributions received and accepted by the LCMS are deemed to be in agreement with this statement.
