Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
There is just one week left to register for the 2016 Grace Gathering! Registration closes July 17. Reserve your spot today!
The Grace Gathering will be held in partnership with the 2016 ELCA Churchwide Assembly in New Orleans Aug. 10-13.
The gathering will bring people together from across the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Participants will see the Churchwide Assembly in action, worship with voting members, engage in experiential learning and attend a variety of workshops that will focus on Reformation history and theology, 500th anniversary observances and the Lutheran witness in action today. The complete list of workshops is available on ELCA.org/GraceGathering/Gathering-Details/Workshops.
Workshops will include:
- Telling Our History Together, Praying Together, Moving “From Conflict to Communion”
- Women and the Reformation: Mothers of Faith
- What Does It Mean to be Lutheran in a Multi-Religious World?
- The “Noble Art” of Music
- When Lutherans Open the Scriptures
We hope you will take this first-time opportunity to connect with other Lutherans and friends, reflect on the past and present, and discover new ways the ELCA is active today.
Registration for the Grace Gathering is open until July 17.
Learn more and register at ELCA.org/GraceGathering.
We hope to see you there!
