Now we are in the storm, the boat almost swamped; but Jesus is here now, and when we call him, he will calm the storm. Even the wind and waves listen to him as they would to their creator. We also listen to him and are called to believe in the power of God’s word in him, a power greater than all that we fear. 2 GATHERING The Holy Spirit calls us together as the people of God.

  • Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule
    1 April 2020 Anxiety Can Visit but Not Rule The disciples were afraid. How could they not be! They were in a small boat that was sinking because of a brutal storm. The wind was howling and the waves were crashing and filling the boat! On top of this, Jesus was asleep in the stern! Did he not care? How could he sleep? “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” “Peace! Be still!” After the calm registered in the eyes and minds of the terrified disciples, Jesus said, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” (Mk. 4:35-41). This was not the only time that anxiety, or fear, visited the disciples. The Bible is filled with many others who feared greatly for their lives, feared that God had forsaken them, feared that they were doomed. Read the Psalms! It seems that anxiety sprang upon the earth the moment Adam crunched his teeth into the forbidden fruit. “I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself” (Gen. 3:10). Adam was right to be afraid of God in his sin, but with the promise of the seed of the woman, the Christ, anxiety was not to be his Lord, nor ours! How many times in the Bible does God say, “Do not fear,” or some variation? A lot! This is his declaration that he is Lord over all, including anxiety. Anxiety has paid us a visit again. The pandemic opened the door. For some, anxiety is more of an obnoxious house guest than for others.

  • Explanation of the Lutheran Liturgy Based on LSB Divine Service I
    Explanation of the Lutheran Liturgy Based on LSB Divine Service I Prelude . Lighting of the Candles Greeting . Significance of the Day The Divine Service begins with the Hymn of Invocation (or the Processional Hymn, if there is a Procession), which helps set the tone and mood for the worship service, reminding us early on of God's great love through Jesus our Savior. Already, with the Prelude, the organist is directing our attention to the fact that in worship, "heaven touches earth," just as God's Word declares through the Virgin Mary in Luke 1:68: "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people." Hymn of Invocation: CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION Congregation shall stand The service continues as we invoke the name of the Triune God, put upon us by Jesus' command in our Baptism (Matthew 28:19) - the name in which we gather. St. Paul captures the eternal significance of our Baptism into Christ when he writes: "as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ" (Galatians 3:27). The sign of the cross may be made as a visible reminder of our Baptism. The congregation responds by saying, "Amen," which means "so let it be!” P In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. C Amen. The Exhortation is an invitation to confession. The inspired words of the Apostle John remind us that God is "faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:8-9).

Leaders and church members from across Wisconsin, as well as family and friends of the Bishop, came to welcome him back to our Con- ference as our leader and listen to his humble words of inspiration. “It is my great privilege and honor to be installed today as a servant leader in the Wisconsin Conference,” he said. In his sermon, Bishop Jung spoke of God’s living waters: a river “so amazing and deep and wide, and includes all people, without negation and without rejec- tion.” He talked about his vision for the Church, one which celebrates diversity without hesitation, and focuses on bringing new members in all the time. As a sign of his servant leadership, Bishop performed a feet washing cere- mony by washing the feet of Conference Lay Leader Deanna Shimko before com- munion. “In that moment, I was so honored and humbled,” Shimko said. “It truly shows how dedicated our new Bishop is and how lucky we are to have him here.” The service, which more than 200 people attended, demonstrated an out- ABOVE: Conference leaders and Bishop Jung celebrate his ABOVE: Bishop Jung performed a pouring of support for Bishop Jung, including special guests such as a choir from Installation Service.
