Migrant Ministry

Last Saturday a truckload of generosity from St. Luke’s was delivered to Christ Lutheran Church in the pouring rain…

111 tied blankets, 100 Kindness Kits, 25 cases of bottled water, a generous check and BAGS and BAGS full of needed items to help support the migrants living at Christ Church as well as those sleeping in tents, on the street and in the 17th Precinct Police Station. Pastor Tom Terrel was extremely grateful for all of our support and generosity.

The Reformation

The Reformation was a pastoral movement within the one Body of Christ to restore the faith and the Gospel to the common lay believer. Luther translated the Bible into German, did away with the Latin mass and introduced worship in German so people could worship and sing in their heart language. It is important to remember that the possibility of mass communication through Guttenberg’s invention of the printing press was critical in spreading the ideas of the Reformation. It has been true since the beginning of the Christian Church following the resurrection of Jesus, that new platforms of communication have aided the spread of the Gospel.
