Worship & Growing Faith

This year, Pentecost will be celebrated on Sunday 8 June. The GIFT (Growing in Faith Together) Pentecost resource includes some simple suggestions for celebrating Pentecost, whether at home with family members or in worship with your congregation.

You are invited to join God’s mission by praying for (and with) LCA International Mission partners in mission at monthly online prayer gatherings.

You’re invited to join Pray through May – a month-long invitation from LCA International Mission to intentionally spend time cultivating communities of prayer, celebrating who God is, and joining him in his mission in Australia, New Zealand and abroad.

To help individuals, congregations, and school and aged-care communities to grow their understanding of the wondrous miracles of Jesus, Lutheran Tract Mission has prepared a free Lenten devotional entitled ‘Miraculous Jesus’.

A new four-part Bible study around the theme of ‘mission-shaped stewardship’ is designed for congregations to use to explore the biblical concept and practice of stewardship and culminates in the practical exercise of filling out a personal giving plan.

The LCANZ’s Commission on Worship has been busy preparing this year’s worship resources for Lent and Easter, and, as usual, you will find them available three to four weeks in advance.
