Raimo Passed Away
Pastor John Raimo, who attended Lutheran Brethren Seminary and served several CLB congregations early on in his call as a pastor, passed away on October 25.
In 1952, with the encouragement of his pastor, Omar Gjerness, he enrolled in Lutheran Brethren Seminary, Fergus Falls, MN. He pastored congregations in Portland, OR; Maddock, ND; Duluth, MN; and Lake Nebagamon, WI. While pastoring in Duluth, he felt a desire to offer Christian education in the area, so he founded Lakeview Christian Academy in 1979.
