News and Updates from Amazing Grace

December 21, 2012. On the ancient Mayan calendar that’s the last day. Did the Mayan people know something we don’t? Will there be a December 22nd? Are we just days away from the end of the world? This Advent at Amazing Grace Lutheran we’ll be taking a closer look…not on a Mayan calendar…but at God’s unfailing Word. Join us as we search the Scripture to discover what God has to teach us about the end.

Where do I bring my books?

I was glad to represent our congregation at the South Atlantic District convention this past week in Indian Rocks Beach, FL. Our national church body, WELS, is divided into twelve administrative districts, and our congregation is part of the South Atlantic District. Our District meets in convention once every two years to help set the agenda for our national ministry efforts. We also receive important information about resources and plans that are available for us to use in our own local congregations.

As we confess each Sunday, we believe in the Holy Christian Church. Through the Spirit’s working faith in our heart to cling to Jesus as Savior, we become members of that Church. We live in it together with all believers around the world. Throughout the summer months, the readings from the Gospel of Mark in our worship, Jesus addresses some questions about life in the Church that Christians often ask.
