On June 24 Lutheran Vespers were prayed for the martyrs at Lubeck’s Memorial Church. Former president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, Cardinal Walter Kasper, spoke at the ceremony

Eve of the 481st Anniversary of the Presentation of the Augsburg Confession--VERY SIGNIFCANT timing!



Lutheran Ping!

Glory to the Holy Trinity!

The praying of Lutheran Vespers is significant not only for the date (eve of the 481st Anniversary of the Presentation of the Augsburg Confession) but for the content.

Since 1978 in the US Lutheran Vespers has included what is essentially the great Litany (Ektenia) from the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, including the petitions for all the faithful departed and the calling to mind of all the saints (although not normally enumerated by name).
