Worship & Growing Faith

With some major celebrations such as Commemoration of Reformation and All Saints just around the corner, the Worship Planning Page has prepared full suites of worship resources for your congregation to use.

Do you ever feel awkward, ill-equipped, unqualified, or unprepared to share the gospel? Do you know someone who is curious about the gospel, Jesus, or the Christian faith, but you just aren’t sure of the next steps?

Students from Queensland, Tasmania, Adelaide and Vietnam attended Australian Lutheran College’s (ALC) recent ‘Christian Liturgy and Church Rites’ intensive (a Greek intensive was held earlier this year), which was hosted by St Petri congregation in the Barossa Valley from 19 to 24 August.

The Commission on Worship, in collaboration with Lutheran Earth Care Australia and New Zealand, has made available Season of Creation worship resources for 2024. Congregations are encouraged to begin this season of prayer and action for the environment with a service on 1 September.

The Lutheran Women of Australia (LWA) National Convention will be held from Wednesday 2 October to Thursday 3 October 2024 at Unity College in Murray Bridge, South Australia.

New prayers, liturgy and music resources prepared by the LCANZ Pastoral Care Working Group have been added to the Worship Planning Page.
