The Christian Life team promotes, provides and encourages Bible study at all District LWML activities, to include meetings, retreats, and zone events. They seek to reaffirm spiritual growth of God’s people, equip individual women for greater service in God’s Kingdom, assist and encourage LCMS women to recognize their service potential and motivate women to grow in faith and in service to the Lord.

His Mercy, My Calling By: Delia Collard, V.P. of Christian Life
Have you ever cried out to our Lord? I mean, really cried out, “Lord. Help me!” Most of us have. Some of us continue to cry out daily for His strength, wisdom, protection, and peace. As Christians, we know that through difficult adventures, God uses adversity to refine us, test and strengthen our faith, ultimately drawing us closer to Him.
Scored like silver, God continues to remind us that salvation is a gift, and in response to that gift, we live out our God-given vocations with faith, love, and service to our neighbor. He shows Himself to us every day, calling us to focus and obey His voice calling, “Come and follow Me.”
What a privilege it is to be a child of God. He laid down His life for me and now He claims my life for Him. Now, my gifts, talents, time, money, the strength of my body and the affections of my heart are poured out in love for the good of those in need. As I grow closer to Him, I realize that my life can no longer be about me. It must be lived through Jesus Christ who loved me and gave Himself for me for the sake of my neighbor.
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:2-4

2025 Prayer Service
Blessed are They …
The 2025 Prayer Service is based on the Beatitudes, found in Matthew 5:1–12.
The Beatitudes are some of the most beloved words of Jesus. In them, Jesus highlights people in various situations of life, situations that are not always easy to endure — or even envision — as a child of God. Yet, our Lord calls the people in each condition “blessed” and assures each of them of their place in the kingdom of heaven. As you hear the precious Beatitudes from our Lord and pray for people in the various stages of life, may you indeed be blessed and encouraged in your life of faith. May your mind be drawn to the work of Christ, His life, and His death and resurrection which bless you each day until He brings you home to the kingdom of heaven forever.
