Commission on Worship

Worship is at the heart of the church's life. It's here that God serves his people through his holy word and sacraments, and empowers us to participate in mission to his world.

The Commission on Worship provides guidance in all aspects of Christian worship to its congregations, schools and agencies in conformity with sound Lutheran principles.

It also produces material to enrich the worship life of the church, including liturgical resources, service orders, music, drama and visual arts. The Worship Planning Page is one of the most popular pages on the LCA website. If you plan or lead worship, this page has all the resources you need: seasonal liturgical responses, Bible readings and sermons.

The work of the commission is carried out through departments which have responsibility for specific areas of the church's worship life:

  • Department of Music and Song
  • Department of Liturgics
  • Department of Visual Arts.
