I think I am excited!

Well, it looks like hubby and I are going to flee the TEC for LCMS. After the latest TEC general convention debacle, we know we need to scoot. There's no saving that mess, and no ACNA anywhere nearby. The LCMS, after our study, seems to be a reasonable fit for us.

We've visited an LCMS church nearby, and really like the service and the folks were most welcoming. Hopefully, we'll celebrate Christmas in a new, Christ honoring congregation as members!

Good luck in your new church and God bless. You're probably right by the way

It is sad that the Episcopalians have taken yet another huge step away from God. Many, many people are being led down the path to their own destruction. We must pray that the Holy Spirit convict their hearts and lead them back to the truth.

Welcome, Lizabth, to the LCMS.

I'm glad your visit to the local LCMS church went well Liturgical service I hope?

I'm sorry for the circumstances you faced, but I'm glad you've found a new home. Welcome!

You will not be alone. I know a number of Episcopalians who have found homes in the LCMS. Welcome!

Welcome to the LCMS!

If your congregation uses The Lutheran Hymnal you'll actually notice that there are parallels between that and The Anglican Prayer Books. Always liked the liturgical traditions of the Anglican church (TLH - The Lutheran Hymnal, even took some of the offertories in the Anglican prayer books for use in the Lutheran Church). And I use the KJV in my devotions.

It's a shame, England may well have been Lutheran to begin with had it not been for Henry VIII burning Tyndale at the stake.

In any event...blessings as you study the faith and discover "what this means!"

Welcome to the LCMS!!!
