Start Some Fires
"Make your life a mission, not an intermission,"
LCMS President Rev. Dr. Gerald Kieschnick challenged LWML members.
He reminded us of the vision of the LCMS: "We have a calling
to be together in one mission, that is to seek the lost for Christ.
We have one message, that Jesus is Savior of the world. We are
one people, united by God's love in Christ." To help further
this end, he presented President Reiser with a $3,600 check from
LCMS Council of Presidents toward the 2005-2007 mite goal.
To set the world ablaze with the Gospel, we each need to commit
to a single critical event: When one faithful Lutheran Christian
gives witness to Jesus of the hope that is within him or her
to another person so that person may encounter Christ. "What
will be your role in fulfilling the one vision?" he asked.
"It is time to set the world ablaze. It is time to start
some fires."
