That same month, St. Olaf Professor of Philosophy, Howard Hong, his family and three young volunteers arrived in occupied Germany to begin the work of supporting Lutherans in DP camps. A number of St. Olaf graduates soon followed to share in the service, and later, some of those assisted by the LWF-SR made their way to Northfield, Minnesota and St. Olaf College.&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/lwf-refugee-service\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1702\/2023\/07\/AliceErlanderFrankfurtResize.jpg&#8221; use_text_overlay=&#8221;off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_level=&#8221;h2&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Sura||||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; body_font=&#8221;Sura||||||||&#8221; body_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; body_line_height=&#8221;1.1em&#8221; background_color=&#8221;gcid-c4f4b217-3d4e-4e0c-b6e7-c5bcec5efa27&#8243; background_enable_color=&#8221;on&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||50px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{%22gcid-c4f4b217-3d4e-4e0c-b6e7-c5bcec5efa27%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}&#8221; sticky_transition=&#8221;on&#8221;][\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide heading=&#8221;Lutherans were not the only religious group assisting refugees in postwar Europe.
