July 12, 2016FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LWML Sunday 2016
Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man (Psalm 66:5).
“Come and See” is the theme for LWML Sunday 2016.
God calls us to “Come and See” how He brings about His salvation in the most unexpected ways and places, and to the most unlikely people. God invites us to be surprised by His awesome deeds of salvation in Jesus Christ even today, among people whom we might think least likely to receive His blessings. The Lord surprises us. So Come and See!
The LWML thanks Dr. Leopoldo A. Sánchez M. for writing this year’s materials. Dr. Sánchez is the Werner R. H. and Elizabeth R. Krause Professor of Hispanic Ministries at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis.
