Sunday, 10-26-08, was Reformation Day (observed) in most, if not all Lutheran churches across the country. My church, Trinity Lutheran (LCMS) partnered with our neighbor, Zion Lutheran (ELCA) to show the film "Luther". It was the one that came out a couple years ago. We opened it up to the community and charged no admission. We had a great turnout. Hopefully it will be the first in an ongoing film series. We also had a freewill offering, the proceeds of which goes to Lutheran World Relief.
Anyway, some big "Thank Yous" are due:
My friend, colleague, and co-planner: Rev. Katie Yahns
Everyone who came
Everyone who donated stuff
Other churches who advertised for us, especially Christ Chapel Wesleyan
God
The pictures all take place prior to the showing of the film. Enjoy!

Glad to hear the Luther night was a success, and many thanks for raising awareness and funds for Lutheran World Relief.
As a fellow blogger, you might enjoy the stories and reflections from our President John Nunes on his blog.
If I can be a resource for you or your church, please send an email - dlee@lwr.org - or give us a call - 1-800-LWR-LWR2.
