Livestream and In person in the Sanctuary

Read Isaiah 6:1-13 and Luke 5:1-11

Both scriptures are “call” stories. We get that name from the call of God who summons us into a life dedicated to something more than ourselves.

Too often we try to self-actualize and find our own way in life. But the Christian is meant to listen to someone else’s call.

Join us on Sunday morning as we hear this wondrous calling God has for you and for this community known as the church.

Seekers and Sponges:  Sunday, February 6 - 8:30am in-person and ZOOM
Seekers and Sponges will continue with our series, Luther: Gospel, Law, and Reformation.  Our discussion each Sunday will be preceded by a video lecture given by Phillip Cary, Professor at Eastern University.   Cary points out that while Martin Luther was only one man—a humble monk and Bible professor—yet he sparked a religious rebellion that changed the course of history.  Who was he?  What made his theology so explosive in 16th-century Europe?  How did this late-medieval man launch the Protestant Reformation and help create the modern world as we know it?  And how should we think of him: hero or heretic, rebel or tormented soul?  Please join us for a discussion following the DVD lecture.  We will be meeting in person at Peace and also by Zoom.

We are part of one church body organized in three expressions — congregations, synods, and the churchwide organization. Each expression has its particular functions but all three together share a common mission of doing God’s work in the world and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Together, they ensure a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA.
