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:"Go Baptize\, Make Disciples" Catechumenate Training Institute
DESCRIPTION:We may be in a time of numerical decline among denominations\, yet the church has a grand opportunity for spiritual deepening. Now is the time to reclaim the traditional path of discipleship—through a faith formation process known as the Catechumenate. This ancient/future way of learning and creating disciples invites us to hear one another’s stories in the light of God’s story. It is a baptismal journey with Jesus that is life-giving and transforming—not only for individuals but for entire faith communities. \nYou are invited to experience this simple yet profound way of making disciples at a Training Institute being held May 4-6\, 2017\, in Arden\, North Carolina. The event for pastors\, seminarians\, and lay leaders is co-sponsored by Journey to Baptismal Living (NAAC) and the North Carolina Synod (ELCA). Bring a team and be immersed in the movements and worship rites of the Catechumenate. Every participant receives a training manual and free copy of Go Make Disciples: An Invitation to Baptismal Living (Augsburg Fortress) that will help you introduce this discipling process to your congregation. \nThe Lutheran Church of the Nativity in Arden—located near the Asheville airport—is hosting the training institute. Because of a synodical grant\, registration (including meals\, program\, and materials) is being offered at the low cost of $175 per person. Housing is available at the discounted conference rate of $89 per night at the nearby Mountain Inn and Suites Airport Hotel—but rates are only guaranteed through April 4\, 2017\, by calling 828-684-0040. \nFull scholarships (including housing) are available for students/seminarians. For more information contact Pastor Mark Fitzsimmons at mfitzsimmons@nativityarden.org or call 828-684-0352. \n\nMore details can be found in these documents: 1) Training Institute Flier\, 2) Training Institute Brochure\, 3) Training Institute Schedule\, and 4) Training News Release.\n\nClick here to go directly to online registration.

SUMMARY:Spanish Language and Hispanic Ministry Intensive I
DESCRIPTION:The Summer Language and Hispanic Ministry Intensive is a resource for Lutherans and those of other denominations who recognize the growing need for competency in the Spanish language and an understanding of Hispanic culture in light of the increasing Hispanic population in this country and in the church. The course focuses on study of the Spanish language and Hispanic culture. \nTestimonial: “I came to this experience knowing NO Spanish other than “gracias” and “si.” Although I still have a lot of work to do on Spanish vocabulary\, this experience helped me learn how to pronounce Spanish vowels\, consonants\, and words. Maybe most important\, I believe that (using a Spanish language worship book) I could now lead a worship service in Spanish and even understand most of what is being said.” — Bishop Steve Delzer\, Southeastern Minnesota Synod\, ELCA \n\n\n\n\nOptions if Register before February 28\, 2017: \n$1\,100 with shared room on campus also includes daily continental breakfast and lunch and dinner on Memorial Day. \n$1\,300.00 single room (3 rooms available; first come first serve) includes a daily continental breakfast and lunch and dinner on Memorial Day. \n$800.00 without lodging; includes daily continental breakfast and lunch and dinner on Memorial Day. \nAll other meals are on your own.

SUMMARY:Pray\, Fast\, Act
DESCRIPTION:PRAYER\, FASTING AND ACTION (#PrayFastAct): The next “For Such a Time” day of prayer\, fasting and action with the Episcopal Church is Friday\, July 21. This month\, the presiding bishops of both churches urge action to protect funding for the U.S. International Affairs budget. Our country has a rich history of fighting extreme poverty and responding to humanitarian crises around the world. Although it’s less than 1 percent of the federal budget\, foreign assistance has saved millions of lives and continues to do so today. With more than 20 million people at risk of starvation globally\, and millions more displaced\, the need for foreign assistance is as great as it has ever been. \nAs a church together\, we ask our members of Congress to protect funding for international programs that provide relief and support livelihood for the poorest among us. Visit elca.org/PrayFastAct for resources and to learn how to take action.
