Sunday’s Preview – Singing at MidnightRead Acts 16:16-34 What do you do when life hits midnight? When everything feels dark—when prayers seem unanswered, when life doesn’t go the way you thought faith would lead—most of us want to ask, “God, where are you?” But in Acts of the Apostles 16, Paul and Silas don’t turn away from God in their suffering… they turn toward God. Beaten, chained, and thrown into prison, they begin to pray. They begin to sing. And people start listening. This Sunday, we’ll explore what it means to have a faith that sings at midnight—a joy that isn’t dependent on circumstances, and a witness that shines brightest when life feels darkest. Because what you do in the dark might just be the light someone else needs. For more infomation visit: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts%2016%3A16-34&version=CEB

Mission Spotlight April 2026The Tiemann Endowment Fund for Leadership Development The April Mission Spotlight joins the Southwestern Texas Synod 2026 Assembly as it convenes May 1-2 with an offering designated for the Tiemann Leadership Fund.
The Tiemann Endowment Fund for Leadership Development was established by the Synod in 2018 for the continuing education of clergy, lay leaders and deacons. An annual distribution of about $6,000 has been granted to equip lay leaders, pastors, and deacons serving under Letter of Call in building and strengthening our congregations and ministries.
The Endowment Fund was created to honor Bishop Tiemann’s eighteen years of faithful service and to invest boldly in the future of the church.
The vision was simple and powerful. Create a fund that leaders, especially lay leaders, could access for leadership development, continuing education, and formation, ensuring God’s work continues through well-equipped and confident servants.
Today the Tiemann Endowment is a permanent fund managed by the Lutheran Foundation of the Southwest, with grants awarded annually under the oversight of the Synod Council.
As this endowment grows, so does its impact. It will provide lasting support for lay leadership development and new models of ministry— investing in leaders who will serve faithfully in shaping the future.
Please join Peace Lutheran by prayerfully joining the Synod as it lifts up The Tiemann Leadership Fund. Sunday, April 26 as we collect a designated offering to benefit the Tiemann Leadership Fund.
