Exact solutions of the string equations of motion in a specific Lorentzian wormhole background are obtained. These include both closed and open string configurations. Perturbations about some of these configurations are investigated using the manifestly covariant formalism of Larsen and Frolov. Finally, the generalized Raychaudhuri equations for the corresponding string worldsheet deformations are written down and analysed briefly.
