Moral and Social Issues

What does our church teach about complex moral and social issues in our world today?
United Lutheran Seminary offers a series which we are doing at Emmanuel.

You can choose the time and location that best suits your schedule:

  1. At Emmanuel with other people on Sunday after worship.
  2. At home on zoom on Tuesday evenings for the premier joining other Lutherans.
  3. A replay at home on your computer or phone – you choose the time.

The topics and the dates at Emmanuel are:

  • Introduction to Social Teachings – September 15
  • Corporate Social Responsibility – September 22
  • Abortion – October 13
  • Sexism and Justice – October 20
  • ELCA Earth’s Climate Crisis Study Guide – October 27
  • Freed in Christ: Race, Ethnicity, and Culture – November 3

 Please contact Pastor Linda for the link to see the webinar “live” when it premiers or to get the link to watch on your own time in your own space.  The “live” zoom presentations are on Tuesday evenings beginning August 27 (every other week).

The social statements are also available to read.  We have many available in the church building and all are available on the website www.elca.org.
