October Table Talk
October 24th, 11:00 a.m., Conference Room
October 28th, 7:00 p.m. on Zoom
In this Table Talk, we will engage in lively discussion about change in the church. In the Protestant Reformation, semper reformanda (always reforming) was a rallying cry for the church to continually reform itself in accordance with the word of God. What changes do we need to make in our message and practices? But at the same time, how do we preserve the heart of our tradition?

Just Peacemaking
Tuesdays through October 27th, 7:00 p.m. on Zoom
In August 1995, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America Churchwide Assembly adopted a social statement entitled "For Peace in God's World." The first sentence of this statement affirms that as people of faith, we are called to be peacemakers.
In this class we will focus on what it means to fulfill that call. We begin by studying four classic approaches to war and peace. We will then consider a fifth approach that has emerged: Just Peacemaking. In our final session, we will identify some of the global threats to peace.
