2020 LWML Sunday
Kingdom People Produce Kingdom Fruit The first Sunday in October is traditionally set aside for the observation of LWML Sunday, but it may be celebrated at any time. The theme for LWML Sunday 2020 is based on Jesus’ words to the chief priests and Pharisees found in Matthew 21:43 that … The kingdom of God will be … given to a people producing its fruits. As people of the kingdom of God, God graciously nurtures us and generously gives us everything we need to produce fruit for the kingdom during the fruit-bearing season of our lives. In response to God’s grace and empowered by the Holy Spirit through Word and Sacrament, Kingdom People (in the LWML) Produce Kingdom Fruit for the season of our whole life on this earth. Written by Rev. Larry Krueger, Senior Pastor at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Waco, TX, and Secretary of the Texas District. >>>LWML Sunday resources from LWML.org |
2020 LWML Prayer Service
"Living in Love, Bearing Fruit" Christians are saved to serve. We are chosen and called to bear fruit for Jesus. We do this as we live in His love, not only in our home or church, but also in the world, where it is often more difficult to love others. Written by LCMS Florida-Georgia District President Rev. Dr. Gregory S. Walton 2020 Prayer Service Information |

Mustard Seed Devotions
"A vibrant tool for Christian growth and Gospel sharing" The seed of the mustard plant is among the smallest of seeds, yet from this small seed grows a large bush. Jesus used the analogy of a mustard seed to show how something small and seemingly inconsequential can have a powerful impact. In 1971 the LWML developed a new series of short personal Bible studies called Mustard Seeds. Mustard Seed packets are used both for personal Bible study & as an evangelism or witness tool. >>>More... |

Visual Ministry
If you enjoyed the coloring note cards designed by Pat Maier and presented by Eden Keefe at the Christian Life Retreat November 2017 OR if you are just interested in what the “visual ministry” buzz is about, check out the new resources available on the Visual Faith Ministry website https://www.visualfaithmin.org/ This site is administered by Connie Denninger (the wife of the Southeastern District President), Pat Maier, and a few other LCMS women. In the words of Eden Keefe “This is an AMAZING website!” They are all free printables for church, school, or personal use. You “add them to your cart” as you browse and then “check out”, but after check out they are available as a free download to you and are also sent to your email address. Check it out! |
