SUMMARY:Briarwood Climbing Wall & Zip Line Dedication
DESCRIPTION:New to Briarwood – Honoring Mamma Jean Oswald and Pastor Eric Schulze\n\nFrom Briarwood’s newsletter:\n\n\n\nThis summer we have added a tower that measures 30 feet tall and on this tower are a climbing wall\, vertical playpen\, and “Jacob’s Ladder.”  Off of this tower is a 450 foot zip line that climbers get to ride after they’ve made it to the top!  This addition has proven to not only be a highlight for summer campers but an attraction as we now offer BASE Camp (Briarwood’s Awesome Summer Experience) to the surrounding Community.\n\nThis new addition was made possible because of gifts given in Memory of Mamma Jean and Pastor Eric\, a gift from Pastor Eric’s Estate\, a major gift from Grace Lutheran Church\, Fort Worth\, a grant from the NT-NL Mission Endowment Fund along with gifts from Ron and Becky Brakke and Calvary Lutheran\, Richland Hills.\n\nWe not only give thanks for these gifts to Briarwood but also for the opportunity to honor two pillars of Briarwood’s ministry!  Everyone is invited to join us at Briarwood for a cook-out lunch on Saturday\, September 23\, at 12:30 pm.  A dedication will follow the lunch and everyone is invited to spend the afternoon at Briarwood to enjoy outdoor activities along with the opportunity to climb the wall and ride the zip line!\n\n\n\nPlease RSVP to bw@briarwoodretreat.org by Friday\, September 15.

SUMMARY:Chapel Service & Public Lecture with Rev. Bradley Schmeling
DESCRIPTION:Chapel Service at 10 a.m. in the Chapel of the Abiding Presence \nPublic Lecture at 7:30 p.m. in the Chapel of the Abiding Presence \nRev Bradley Schmeling is an ELCA pastor who was called to the work of reformation simply for living honestly and with integrity. While he was serving as pastor of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Atlanta in 2006\, he announced that he had entered a committed relationship with another Lutheran pastor\, Rev. Darin Easler. Until then\, he had been single and therefore not in violation of the ELCA’s policy at the time\, which prohibited “practicing” LGBT clergy. The Southeastern Synod brought formal disciplinary charges against him\, and he was removed from the ELCA clergy roster in 2007. Nonetheless\, Schmeling continued to serve St. John’s and to advocate for reform. In 2009\, the ELCA’s Churchwide Assembly voted to change its policy to enable partnered lesbian and gay clergy to serve congregations that call them. Schmeling was reinstated to the clergy roster in 2010. Today\, he and Easler are married\, and Schmeling serves Gloria Dei Lutheran Church in St. Paul\, Minn.—the largest ELCA congregation in St. Paul\, as well as the largest in the country to be led by an openly gay pastor. He continues to be concerned that the work of reformation is not finished\, particularly in matters of gender\, race\, and culture. \nThis is a part of TLU’s year-long series of events recognizing 500 Years of Reformation.

SUMMARY:A screening of "Luther"
DESCRIPTION:The Dallas Eric M. Warburg Chapter of the American Council on Germany\nand\nthe Johanniter Humanitarian Group – Texas \nat the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation cordially invite you to a\nscreening of \nLuther\nSaturday\, October 28\, 2017\n7:30pm to 10:00pm \nChrist Lutheran Church\n3001 Lovers Lane\nDallas\, TX 75225 \nThere is no charge to attend this event\, but RSVPs are requested.\nRSVP (acceptances only) at: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/screening-of-luther-a-dallas-warburg-chapter-event-tickets-38666744273 \n\nIn 1516-17\, Johann Tetzel\, a Dominican friar and papal commissioner for indulgences\, was sent to Germany to raise money to build St Peter’s Basilica in Rome. On October 31\, 1517\, Martin Luther wrote to Albrecht\, Archbishop of Mainz and Magdeburg\, protesting against the sale of indulgences. He enclosed in his letter a copy of his “Disputation of Martin Luther on the Power and Efficacy of Indulgences\,” which came to be known as Ninty-five Theses. Hans Hillerbrand writes that Luther had no intention of confronting the church\, but saw his disputation as a scholarly objection to church practices\, and the tone of the writing is accordingly “searching\, rather than doctrinaire.” Hillerbrand further writes that there is nevertheless an undercurrent of challenge in several of the theses\, particularly in Thesis 86\, which asks: “Why does the pope\, whose wealth today is greater than the wealth of the richest Crassus\, build the basilica of St. Peter with the money of poor believers rather than with his own money?” Luther objected to a saying attributed to Johann Tetzel that “As soon as the coin in the coffer rings\, the soul from purgatory [also attested as ‘into heaven’] springs.” He insisted that\, since forgiveness was God’s alone to grant\, those who claimed that indulgences absolved buyers from all punishments and granted them salvation were in error. Christians\, he said\, must not slacken in following Christ on account of such false assurances. The film Luther is a 2003 biopic about the life of Martin Luther. It begins during a thunderstorm in 1505\, as Luther is returning to his home. For fear of losing his life in the storm\, he commits his life to God and becomes an Augustinian monk… \n\n

SUMMARY:North Texas Reformation Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Churches all over the world are commemorating the 500th Anniversary of the Reformation. This is truly a “once in a lifetime event.” Celebrating this momentous era of the beginning of Protestantism will be a highlight for us as Lutherans. \nMartin Luther said\, “Next to the Word of God\, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world.” So\, what better than to mark this anniversary with music? \nFollowing the calling from Psalm 95:1\, “Oh come\, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!” a number of churches in the Dallas – Fort Worth Metroplex have been planning the NORTH TEXAS REFORMATION CELEBRATION – a series of local church concerts culminating in two identical gala concerts in November. \nThe NORTH TEXAS REFORMATION CELEBRATION will take place on November 4 at Broadway Baptist Church\, home of the Rildia Bee O’Bryan Cliburn Organ\, in Fort Worth and on November 5 at Meyerson Symphony Center\, home of the Lay Family Concert Organ\, in Dallas. Make plans to join us on these joyous occasions of praising our Lord and Savior through beautiful music and songs performed by the spectacular CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY CHICAGO WIND SYMPHONY AND KAPELLE (choir) along with a regional mass choir including singers from Concordia High School\, Austin\, TX. \nThe internationally renowned Wind Symphony has performed in 43 states\, Canada\, Eastern Europe\, China\, and\, this past spring\, in South Africa. The group has a commitment to the finest traditional and contemporary sacred and secular repertoire\, and has recorded 13 compact discs of sacred music. \nLet us join together in remembering one of the most significant events of Christian lives; singing praises\, giving thanks and renewing our spirit. Expect to hear\, sing\, and feel our most cherished hymns\, as well as newly written pieces for this Reformation season\, accompanied by the unique and dynamic pipe organs. \nTickets and more information are available at ReformationDFW.org or by emailing NailedIt@ReformationDFW.org. You may also follow the events on Facebook. \nClick here if you are interested in Sponsorship. \n“As long as we live there is never enough singing.” ― Martin Luther \nWatch for Celebration Events throughout North Texas.

SUMMARY:(RE)FORMATION: a Film by Shannon Ivey
DESCRIPTION:Location: Studio Theatre at Weston Center \nMust the Christian church include stained glass windows\, a marketing campaign\, or a multi-million dollar media setup to spread the word of God? Do pastors need a brand? Jesus was a homeless Jew\, a political radical\, and a servant to the broken – would his “brand” even survive in 21st Century America? In 1517\, Martin Luther challenged the Roman Catholic Church with a similar set of questions and it led to the Protestant Reformation. 500 years later\, as a group of artists renovate a transition home for discarded youth\, they explore the meaning of church\, holy ground\, and Jesus’ mission of love. Is the Christian Church in need of a new (re)Formation? \nShannon Ivey is a professor of dramatic media at TLU and the founder of Theatre For Change – a San Antonio-based nonprofit committed to linking the stories inherent within theatre\, film\, and new media to the needs and messages of nonprofit organizations. \nThis event is free and open to the public.
