    Consider it joy

    As I read through this thread, I am reminded of what I took as my Confirmation Verse, John 15:5 ( English Standard Version (ESV)): 5*I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. It's true. In...

    Liturgical Only Sacred space & closed communion.

    When one believes that God Himself is present in any particular space set aside as sacred ( such as during the administration of the Sacraments and the reading of the Word), that space will naturally be reverenced. When somebody is of the opinion that God is not especially any more present in...

    Mary - The Mother of Our Lord

    As a Confessional Lutheran, I had taken vows during my reaffirmation to be faithful to the teachings of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, even unto death. I subscribe to what Melanchthon wrote about Our Lady in the Apology of the Augsburg Confession: Granting that the blessed Mary prays for the...

    What Do You Do in Your Church?

    It's something that usually only the ladies of a parish would do. They put the cloth on the altar and arrange the appropriate materials on the altar, including the elements for Holy Communion. Hope Lutheran Church in Jacksonville was a mission parish when my ex wife and I went and so everybody...

    What Do You Do in Your Church?

    That's when I was still married. My wife and I put all the communion wafers into the paten, arranged the Bible stand and the Bible on the Altar ( after we put the altar cloth on the altar just so.. the details were a little harrowing for me, but important to our supervisor), squirted the wine...

    What Do You Do in Your Church?

    Well, right now, I just usher. I haven't been asked to lector for awhile now and I guess I'm not needed in that capacity at the moment. In the past, in Jacksonville, I worked with the Altar Guild, I even helped distribute Communion and I read for the congregation. When I got back home, I did a...

I'm a convert, having joined up in 2013 by a reaffirmation of faith when I was living in Jacksonville, FL and...
