Pastoral Meanderings: Convention Wrap Up

Convention Wrap Up

Not bland but rich in unity, love, respect, compassion, and truth...

Not earth shattering but quietly renewing the structures of the Church and reflecting our unity...

Not know for what was done as much as for what was not done -- no conflict, division, or split...

A little humor and some grace in a gathering to celebrate what the riches and treasure of God's grace have done for us, in us, with us, and through us.... Baptized for THIS moment...

The Window

This is the Means of Grace Window that is above the altar of Grace Lutheran Church where I serve. It reminds us of the keys (confession and absolution), the wheat(the bread which is the Body of Christ), the cup (which is His Blood), the Word (Scripture), and the Pastoral Office (the red stole). In this one wonderful window we see the treasures of the Church in the Word and Sacraments and I love that it is available for all to see. I realize that this image has been stolen all over the internet but it is a real window, a copyrighted image, belonging to Grace Lutheran Church, Clarksville, Tennessee, which has kindly allowed my use of it...
