EAST AFRICA DROUGHT RELIEF – The worst drought in 60 years is devastating East Africa.

Of the 78 possible years, we now have 68 class pictures – only 10 years to go and for at least 5 of those years there is a very good chance that they can be located.

DID YOU KNOW that The Lutheran Service Book, our current hymnal, has turned out to be a tremendous success? About one year ago, CPH reported that the 1 millionth copy of the LSB had been sold; today, well over 1 million copies are in use around the world – and not just by LCMS congregations, either. Our hymnal is being used by other Lutheran church bodies as well as by some non-denominational churches. The Lutheran Hymnal, our former hymnal, was used by about 60% of LCMS congregations. The LSB is currently being used by about 85% of LCMS congregations.
The LSB contains, not only most of the popular hymns from prior hymnals, but is also a great resource for your personal spiritual use. It contains most of the Psalms, daily prayers, a Bible reading schedule, the 3 Creeds of the Christian Church, the Small Catechism, information on the church year and much more. And like any resource, the more you use it and explore its contents, the easier it will be to use and the more comfortable you will feel with it.
The Schwan Food Company headquartered in Marshall, MN provided the funding for the hymnal’s 6 years of development. Rev. Heinrich (Henry) Schwan, a German immigrant born in 1819 and who became a Lutheran pastor, was President of the LCMS from 1878 through

DID YOU KNOW that since the Civil War, LCMS pastors have served as military chaplains? Today, LCMS Ministry to the Armed Forces supports a total of 214 chaplains. Among these chaplains, 71 are active duty LCMS chaplains and 88 are serving Reserve or National Guard units. Currently, 15 of these Reserve/Guard chaplains are mobilized and serving in the United States, Iraq and Afghanistan. LCMS Ministry to the Armed Forces also supports 25 Veterans Administration chaplains, 26 Civil Air Patrol and four chaplains for the Federal Bureau of Prison ministry.
LCMS Ministry to the Armed Forces initiated Operation Barnabas in 2007 in response to the growing needs of returning military personnel. While Operation Barnabas is a network of care to all of our nation’s military members and their families, special emphasis is given to our Reserve members and their families. Why is it called ‘Operation Barnabas?’ Barnabas was Paul’s companion who helped him on his missionary journeys; his name means “son of encouragement.” Operation Barnabas’s goal is to encourage our military and their families with the Gospel in action!
