Mission Support Memos

Within the quiet rural town of historic Frankford, Del., you will find a dynamic welcoming congregation of deep faith that is appropriately named Community Lutheran Church.

Have you ever driven by that one church that everyone thinks is such a quaint historic stone building, but they do not enter for worship? They might wish to get married there or come for the food pantry.

When you think of facilitation best practices, conversations about setting agendas, engaging content experts, and managing time and people come to mind.

Across our country, Palm Sunday includes morning palm-waving processions in our churches and through our neighborhoods, but this year, these processions continued into the afternoon with journeys through downtown areas, around state buildings, in amphitheaters and in parking lots, as we and our denominational partners cried out for justice, peace and love. This is the Palm Sunday Path.
