Gottedienst Reception Wed Jan 22 Ft. Wayne

Gottesdienst will host a reception on Wednesday, January 22, 2025 at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Ft. Wayne from 6:30pm until 9:00 pm. Beer, wine, and some spirits will be provided by the generosity of the Lutheran Church Extension Fund. There will also be snacks! The real purpose, though, is not to eat and drink but for all of us, the Gottesdienst Crowd, to mingle. There will be a smattering of editors and bloggers on hand as well, to include, at least Eckardt, Scamman, Fabrizius, and me. Maybe Stephenson will make an appearance!! There will be other events for the Crowd during symposia week, including a “Super Winkel",” and you can read more about that here:

LCEF provides very good mortgages for Church workers - especially when they don’t have a history of employment or other things that traditional lenders don’t like, but they offer far more than that. Here is a little blurb that they provided and I urge you to go tot he their website linked about and poke around.
