SUMMARY:2017 Mission / Synod Assembly
DESCRIPTION:If you’re looking for recordings / resources:\nThe Rev. Dr. George Mason’s keynote presentation from Friday\, April 28 \nRev. Mason graciously sent us the text as well: A Baptist Blessing to My Lutheran Cousins \nThe Rev. Louise Johnson’s sermon from Friday\, April 28 \nBishop Erik K. J. Gronberg’s sermon from Saturday\, April 29 \nELCA VP Bill Horne has given us permission to share the slides from his presentation. To help explain those slides\, see the following articles in Living Lutheran: \nThe Campaign for the ELCA: What you need to know (part one of three) \nThe Campaign for the ELCA: A look at domestic initiatives (part two of three) \nThe Campaign for the ELCA: A look at global initiatives (part three of three) \n\nCelebrating the 500th Anniversary of the beginning of the Reformation! \nOur theme builds on Luther’s pivotal question in the Small Catechism: \nWhat Does This Mean? \nThe assembly will give thanks for our reformation heritage\, welcome ecumenical guests\, and celebrate our theological heritage as Lutheran Christians. Additionally\, through worship and education\, we will be invited to consider what it means and will mean to carry the name Lutheran into the 21st Century. \nMartin Luther’s theological move 500 years ago towards the justifying work of Christ and insistence on the individual’s right to personal conscience changed the world forever. \nLuther boldly proclaimed the power of God’s alienated righteousness (1 Cor. 1:30)\, poured out for humanity (Philippians 2)\, so that then we are invited to give ourselves for the life of the world (Gal. 5:22). We live within that theological heritage and are challenged today to ask that same question: \nWhat Does This Mean? \nClick here for the Catholic – Lutheran Joint Statement On The Occasion of the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation. \nRegistration\nOnline registration is closed. \nOn-site: Voting Member $315 (Book of Reports hard copy included) | Retired Clergy $160 | Visitor $130 \nHotel\nOur host hotel is Dallas/Plano Marriott at Legacy Town Center. Our booking deadline was April 12. You can contact them to see if they have any rooms available and if they will still honor our assembly rate of $109.00 (plus taxes and fees) per night. Call Marriott Reservations at 1-800-228-9290 and mention “NT-NL Synod Assembly.” \nResolutions\nThe deadline to submit resolutions was two weeks prior to Assembly.

SUMMARY:BRIDGES Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, March 4 \n2-4 pm at Trinity\, Fort Worth \n4-6pm at Mount Olive\, Dallas \n \nA powerful true story about the potential for mercy to redeem us\, and a clarion call to fix our broken system of justice—from one of the most brilliant and influential lawyers of our time. \nBryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative\, a legal practice dedicated to defending those most desperate and in need: the poor\, the wrongly condemned\, and women and children trapped in the farthest reaches of our criminal justice system. One of his first cases was that of Walter McMillian\, a young man who was sentenced to die for a notorious murder he insisted he didn’t commit. The case drew Bryan into a tangle of conspiracy\, political machinations\, and legal brinksmanship—and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever. \nBryan Stevenson is America’s young Nelson Mandela\, a brilliant lawyer fighting with courage and conviction to guarantee justice for all. Just Mercy should be read by people of conscience in every civilized country in the world to discover what happens when revenge and retribution replace justice and mercy. It is as gripping to read as any legal thriller\, and what hangs in the balance is nothing less than the soul of a great nation. — Desmond Tutu\, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

SUMMARY:Creation Care and Climate Change: It's About the Kids!
DESCRIPTION:WATCH THE LIVE STREAM. \nJoin us for a discussion about environmental stewardship and actions we can take today as Christians to care for the Earth. \nWe will look at our theological and biblical mandates to care for the earth with a focus on climate change.

They will show us the urgent need to live out a bold vision: to reduce our carbon footprint and take an active role in public policy. \nPresenters include:\nDr. Barbara Rossing\, New Testament professor\, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago\nDr. Mark Z. Jacobson\, Director of the Atmosphere and Energy Program\, Stanford University\nCheryl Simmons\, Natural Resources Conservation Service\, Department of Agriculture\nBee Moorhead and the Rev.

Let’s work together to come up with ideas to bring to individuals\, congregations\, and the global church. How might the church encourage action everywhere that will address the pressing problem of climate change? \nClick here for a detailed agenda and a summary of presenters’ bios. \nClick here for a bulletin insert in color. / Click here for a bulletin insert in black and white. \nClick here for the Facebook event page. \nSponsored by the NT-NL Public Witness Team for Peace and Justice and Texas Impact.
