A valiant effort

Yesterday we started following Divine Service 5 from Lutheran Service Book. We'll use this order for the month of August. It is Luther's German Mass and, for being the first time in use at the congregation, it went very well! The people seemed to be able to follow along without too much difficulty. Following the service there were some nice comments from folks.

Singing "Isaiah, Mighty Seer" was very cool. I could imagine the flaming seraphim calling one to another "Holy is God the Lord of Sabaoth!" And the repetitive beauty of "Lamb of God, Pure and Sinless" was awe-full.

Great!
