Cody and Aurelie Mock

Serving the Lord in Latvia — IT Project Manager


Bio

Cody and Aurelie Mock serve the Lord through The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) in Riga, Latvia. As IT project manager, Cody works alongside the Luther Academy in Riga and the mission team in Eurasia to provide support for various IT systems and services. He also helps identify and implement new technology solutions within the region’s projects and provides training for staff on how to use those technologies.

Cody is from Pella, Iowa, and his home congregation is St. John Lutheran Church in Oskaloosa, Iowa. He attended Iowa State University, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Management Information Systems. Before becoming a missionary, he held several roles in the industry, including help desk technician, web developer, assistant programmer and systems administrator. In his free time, he enjoys tinkering with electronics, fixing and restoring things, and brewing his own beer.

Aurelie was born in Tacoma, Wash. She holds a bachelor’s degree in international studies from the University of Nebraska Kearney. She worked for libraries in Kansas for several years before becoming a stay-at-home mother and homeschool teacher for their two daughters, Eva and Moriah. In her free time, Aurelie enjoys taking long walks, gardening, reading, learning languages and collecting books.

Prayers

Pray for the Mock family as they serve in Riga. Ask God to help them successfully integrate into the community and serve Him to the best of their ability. Pray that God would give Cody wisdom to leverage technology in ways that help the mission team clearly communicate the Gospel throughout the region. Let us give thanks that the Mocks are serving God’s children in this part of the world.

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. Contributions received and accepted by the LCMS are deemed to be in agreement with this statement.
