The Evangelical Lutheran Church in America will open its Global Mission Event today with a global sing-along session that will feature music from countries and churches worldwide.
The global sing-along session from 6:15 to 7 p.m. on the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse campus will highlight how music can help build communities and extend hospitality, as it is used in a number of cultures.
