Lutheran Day!

Today Super ONE Leader Pastor Dan Donmoyer and I attended “Lutheran Day” in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The agenda for the day included legislative visits at the Harrisburg Capitol, a legislative panel including PA Reps. Tina Pickett and Mike Sturla, and workshops relating to advocacy.

Dan and I had the opportunity to speak with many Pastors and leaders throughout Pennsylvania interested in the ONE-Lutheran program and ONE Sabbath. We also met with the keynote speaker of the day Andrew D. Genzler. Mr. Genzler is the Director for Advocacy and the Washington Office for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Dan and I spoke with Mr. Genzler and other Pastors about ways to re-engage Lutherans about ONE-Lutheran and ONE Sabbath. A ONE-Lutheran meeting will be held at the Lower Susquehanna Synod Assembly this June in Gettysburg, PA. This was a great day to meet new ONE Leaders and it was exciting to leave the event with real, tangible plans for future ONE activity throughout all the Synods in Pennsylvania.
