Synod AssemblyLast week Sig and Toby Smitt and I attended the annual synod assembly in Las Vegas. Our synod is geographically broad, and to include all our members, we rotate our synod assemblies between the three urban areas that stretch across the breadth of our synod: Tucson, Phoenix, and Las Vegas. This year we gathered in assembly at Community Lutheran Church in Vegas. This year’s assembly theme, “Build Up the Body,” draws from Ephesians 4:12-13, which reminds us of our calling to equip one another for ministry and grow together in Christ. All the reports and programming floated around this theme of building up the body of Christ. David Scherer of JUSTmove was our featured guest for the assembly. With years of experience in intercultural bridge building, personal growth, and artistic expression, David led us through a cohesive, spiritually rich experience. He taught us several liturgical dance moves as he talked about the diversity of the church.... |
