ELCA Worship: A Blend of Tradition and Innovation

Explore ELCA's latest worship news, from inclusive scripture readings to intergenerational events. Discover, learn, and deepen your faith journey with the ELCA community.

The ELCA is continuously evolving, introducing innovative resources to deepen our faith and worship experience. Among the latest offerings is the amended version of Readings for the Assembly, available since Fall 2022 to SundaysAndSeasons.com subscribers. This revised text, stemming from the Revised Common Lectionary, aims to bridge ancient scriptures with contemporary, inclusive language.

If you've been exploring All Creation Sings or even if it's your first encounter, the ACS website is a treasure trove. With over 20 insightful blog posts, discover the depth of the Assembly Song Companion, hymn spotlights, and an enlightening post on “Scriptural Images for God”.

The ELCA's commitment to a vibrant worship culture is further evident through its collaborations. The Association of Lutheran Church Musicians (ALCM) stands out, focusing on nurturing church musicians to lead the divine chorus. Their workshops, spread across the nation, promise to be a hub of learning, sharing, and community building.

Lastly, Gather Together, from Augsburg Fortress/1517 Media, is an intergenerational feast. It beautifully binds children, youth, and adults, exploring worship, global church perspectives, life transitions, and more.

Journey with ELCA and explore these myriad resources to enrich your faith and worship journey.
