Worship and Prayer

Christ's gifts given in worship are at the center of the Synod convention. Therefore, worship, Bible study, and prayer are incorporated into the very heart of this assembly. The importance of looking to Christ and His cross is noted in the bylaws of the Synod, which state, “Convention preachers, worship leaders, and essayists shall be appointed by the President prior to the convention.”

Convention Bible Study

In preparation for this summer’s 65th Regular Convention of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, a special Bible study that relates to the convention theme, “Baptized for This Moment,” is now available. Prepared in five parts, this study is particularly appropriate for congregational or group use during the Lent or Easter seasons.
