Highlights This Week

Greetings from your Lutheran Campus Ministry!
Welcome new students, especially those who will attend one of the Mason Orientation sessions today!

Today the church commemorates the confession of Saint Peter, in response to Jesus' question to his disciples:  "But you, who do you say that I am?"  And Peter replied:  "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God."  (Matthew 16:15-16).

Today also begins the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.

"Almighty God, you inspired Simon Peter to confess Jesus as the Messiah and Son of the living God. Keep your church firm on the rock of this faith, so that in unity and peace it may proclaim one truth and follow one Lord, your Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever."  (Prayer of the Day for the Confession of St. Peter, Evangelical Lutheran Worship.)

Grace and peace,
Pastor Terry Hannon
