Upcoming LLT Services

LLT combined Sunday services will be held usually on the last Sunday of each month. All LLT services will begin at 10:30am. The location will rotate among all of the LLT churches. Listed below are the upcoming Sunday LLT Services and locations.

• November 24th at First English Lutheran Church

• December 22nd at Calvary Lutheran Church - This Sunday will feature the Children’s Christmas Program.

Join all the LLT Churches as we partner with Wittenberg University to pack meals for those in need. This year the meals of rice, soy, seasonings, and vegetables will be sent to the Kingdom of Lesotho in Southern Africa. Our goal is to pack at least 20,000 meals on Saturday, November 2nd. The event is expected to be from 10:00am to 2:00pm, but you do not have to stay the whole time. We are asking that you try to arrive at St. Paul Lutheran Church (125 N. Eastwood Ave., Lancaster, Ohio) before 10:00am to allow yourself time to park and get in the building for the orientation.

Lancaster Lutherans Together (LLT) is all ELCA Lancaster churches coming together in ministry and mission. We are stronger and better together than we are apart from each other. The five city churches are: Calvary, First English, Lutheran Church of Our Savior, St. Paul, and St. Peter’s. Several county ELCA churches also participate in the LLT activities and events. Some of the activities and events we are all a part of are:

● Shared Adult Faith Formation on Sunday Mornings

●      (OPEN) Lutheran Clothes Rack (clothing)

●      (OPEN) Shelter Meal Ministry

●      Food Rescue Project

These churches have been meeting since the fall of 2016 to study, explore, and imagine the possibilities for Lancaster Lutherans. Rostered leaders, staff, and congregational members from all five churches participate.

LLT recognizes the importance of providing meaningful worship experiences in each congregational setting. It also recognizes the importance of identifying and enhancing mission opportunities. LLT wants members to build relationships with our brothers and sisters in all five congregations while fulfilling the purpose of the wider Church both now and for future generations.

LLT meets on the fourth Sunday of each month. Location rotates among the churches and times can vary.  Check in with any of the partner churches for the location and time.
