One of the best parts of this new call is meeting so many people in our synod, across the ELCA Lutheran network, and in our various communities doing faithful work. This week I or the synod staff and I connected with a variety of people listening to God, their neighbors, the larger society and then sharing God’s love with their unique passions and gifts. Meetings included those with a western bishop, a synod staffer from the midwest, a staff member from Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services, and the head of Music that Makes Community.
Early in the week I participated in one of two listening sessions for bishops on the ELCA’s Future Church: God’s Love Made Real.
Future Church: God’s Love Made Real
We want to know what it is to be the church God is calling us to be. But we need YOU. Join us as we seek to discern God’s Spirit and work to become the church God is calling us to be. This is Future Church; This is God’s Love Made Real.
