CCA Symposium June 18–20: Catechesis on the Lord’s Prayer

 

“Lord, teach us to pray.” Christian prayer is the voice of faith that rests upon the promises of the Gospel and not the threats or coercion of the Law. Using Luther’s Small Catechism and the narratives of Holy Scripture, this year’s symposium will feature sample catechesis on the Lord’s Prayer by experienced pastors. Why we pray; the joy and peace that prayer affords; the place of meditation in Christian piety; and the blessings of prayer for individuals, families, and congregations are among the topics that will be covered. The symposium will be held jointly at Peace Lutheran Church, Sussex and Country Springs Hotel, Waukesha on June 18–20. Contact Deacon Gatchell, 262-246-3200, or visit the CCA website, lutherancatechesis.org, for more information. The Concordia Catechetical Academy (CCA) is an auxiliary organization of Peace, dedicated to the promotion of Luther’s Small Catechism and faithful Lutheran catechesis.
