Happy Reformation Day!

Today is Reformation Day, when we commemorate Martin Luther’s posting of the 95 Theses. At the heart of the reform movement was the gospel, the good news that it is by grace through faith that we are justified and set free. (Adapted from Bread for the Day, p. 415)

"For there is no distinction, since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; they are now justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a sacrifice of atonement by his blood, effective through faith" (Romans 3:22-25).

The ELCA’s Youth Ministry Network invites leaders of color to participate in its Multicultural Initiative at the annual continuing education conference called Extravaganza. In our continuing efforts to make our community more representative, we humbly offer free registration to participants of color.

We ask interested participants to go through an application process. Application deadline is Sept. 25, apply at this link

When you attend the Extravaganza or engage in one of the ministries offered by our Network, we hope you will experience a broad spectrum of leaders from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. Our Multicultural Initiative has...
