Emphasizing the point that we are and shall remain catholic and evangelical has been very positively received by the 30 saints that are attending. This congregation has maintained their Lutheran identity in spite of a pastoral vacancy, and I am delighted to nourish that identity. While the first Divine Call issued during my tenure was declined, God has the right man in mind for this parish. In the meantime, I am thoroughly enjoying serving a congregation that wants to understand their evangelical and catholic heritage and nourish it with study, Liturgy, Eucharist (every Divine Service now, since my arrival), and piety to love and serve their neighbor.<br /><br />I pray this for every congregation in our Synod.....Padre Dave Poedelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14033503960196272783noreply@blogger.com
