Lutheran Historical Field Trip

One of the early lessons in SC.org’s “Series One” is the history of Luther. As Reformation approaches, perhaps you might take an opportunity to visit one of the historical Lutheran churches in your area.

Holy Trinity Lutheran is one of the historical churches of Detroit. Confirmands and families enjoy the field trip to this restored “mother Church” of Detroit. There are other old Lutheran churches and Lutheran sites in Detroit, too. The old West Bethlehem Lutheran Church, for example, is now the home site for LATINO, a Lutheran Hispanic Outreach to Michigan. This will be the site of our annual field trip this year.

Perhaps there are churches in your area (or perhaps your own) which have a rich history. I find that students appreciate knowing and exploring their Lutheran roots in a hands-on manner. It can be a great weekend experience!
