it's Saturday Night Confessions!
Salem's Saturday night Book of Concord class is going on its eighth month now, and we have read together and studied the Preface, the Apostles Creed, the Nicene Creed, the Athanasian Creed, and we have completed 26 of the 28 articles of the Augsburg Confession. God willing, we will complete the Augsburg Confession in a couple weeks, and will begin tackling the Apology of the Augsburg Confession.
We typically have about 20 people or so on any given Saturday. The presentations are done on power point, and the discussions are informal and lively. And even though we have a lot of fun, we do roll up our sleeves, usually spending a couple hours in study - following a brief prayer devotion from the Treasury of Daily Prayer.
There is also always plenty of food and drink. On one occasion, we had a surprise crab boil.
If you would like to join your brothers and sisters in a joyful celebration of what it means to be Lutheran and to study what we believe, teach, and confess, come and join us in Schmid Hall! Bring your sense of humor, something to eat, and if you wish, Lutheran beverages of your choice.
And here is a trivia question related to the photo above. The word "margarita" actually appears in the Bible (it is both a Greek and a Latin word). Where?
