Our Family Tree - Christ Through Us in the Wisconsin Synod

Beginning Sunday, April 12 @ 8:45

The Wisconsin Ev. Lutheran Synod is celebrating its 175 anniversary. But what is this “Synod” of which St. Peter’s is a member? How did this Synod begin? What does a Synod mean in today’s society?

The study highlights not only the blessings God has poured out on the Synod as it carries out its mission across the nation and the world but also the theological and cultural challenges that refined Wisconsin Synod into a Christ-centered, confessional Lutheran church body.

Discover your place in this ongoing story of faith, mission, and grace. Celebrate the past. Engage the present. Look forward in hope.

What you will learn:

You will learn the origins and purpose of the Wisconsin Synod, the challenges it faced in the past and faces in the present, and what it means to be a confession, Christ-centered Lutheran church in the 21st century.

What you will take home:

A deeper appreciation for your brothers and sisters in Christ at St. Peter’s and throughout the world.
