Ash Wednesday

You are warmly invited to hear the sermons for Lent at Luther Memorial Chapel & University Student Center in Shorewood.

They'll be based on our Lord’s seven letters to the seven churches in Asia Minor, located in the western region of what is now called Turkey. These letters, along with the entire book of the Revelation, prepare the church for an important future transition — from the old heavens and earth to the new glorified heavens and earth.

During Lent, the Church prepares to remember an important transition of the past — from the old covenant made with lambs’ blood to the new covenant of the Gospel made in Jesus’ blood. As we approach the week of our Lord’s Passion, we are prepared as we attend special midweek Services each Wednesday and hear these revealed words from the glorified Son of Man.

Jesus, the Son of Man, showed Himself in His glorified body to John and told him to write what he saw. In the second and third chapters of the last book of the Bible, John records the seven letters to the seven churches.

Each of these letters praises, admonishes, and calls the churches to repent. Each letter gives hope to the true Church of all believers as it is faithful to the Lord’s teaching. This hope comes from Jesus and the work He accomplishes for all people for all time.

Beginning tonight (6:30 PM, Wednesday, March 1, 2006), come and hear each of these letters read and proclaimed for the salvation of souls. Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is writ! ten in it, for the time is near (Revelation 1:3).
