resources

On 31 October, we commemorate the Reformation, marking the anniversary of Martin Luther posting his 95 Theses, and give thanks for the renewed proclamation of the good news of God’s grace that emerged from it. These resources can help congregations, schools and households mark the occasion.

If you are on the Roll of Pastors (currently in active service), on the Roll of Lay Workers, or an employee paid through LCA Payroll, you and your immediate family members can access the LCA’s Church Worker and Family Wellness and Support Program.

You are invited to join God’s mission by praying for – and with – our mission partners during Pentecost, using LCA International Mission’s 2026 ‘Pentecost Devotional and Prayer Guide’. This guide features devotions written by LCA International Mission partners from around the world.

The LCANZ Season of Creation (1 September and 4 October) resources for 2026 are available now on the Worship Planning Page, and congregations are encouraged to begin this season of prayer and action for the environment with a special service.

The LCA website now includes an enhanced ‘Find a Church’ tool and a new ‘Find a Worship Service’ feature. Information is drawn directly from LAMP2, so now is a great time to check that your congregation’s details and worship service information are correct.
