We are excited to have an Eagle Scout Candidate, Zach Rhodes from Troop 5, to complete our Phase 3 interpretation in the Log College Park. It will be a lovely project and I'm looking forward to the new interpretive sculpture of the sheep to represent Pastor Loeber who was a beautiful example of a shepherd for his people. Pastor Loeber never left his flock. I had a wonderful conversation with Pastor Loeber's descendants--the Lamms--in Oconomowoc. We shared our analysis of the Loeber contribution to the early colonies, and early writings in the LCMS church. They were delighted to hear about the sheep sculpture.

The C.F.W. Walther bicentennial service at Historic Trinity, St. Louis, will be held on Sunday, October 23, at 3:00 p.m. Trinity historian, Dennis Rathert, told me on the phone yesterday that the service is designed as close to a service that Walther would lead as possible. It will be the "Page 5" liturgy in the old hymnal. Dennis said (except for the language) Walther should be able to walk into the service and recognize it. Our new Historical Society president, Warren Schmidt, will be doing one of the readings at the service.

Pastor Stites will be teaching a readings class here at the museum on "Luther's Writings" beginning Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 7:00pm. The only cost will be the books (approx. $15.) Give us a call if you can come and join us, and if you are out of town and would like to read along, let me know and I can order you a book and forward hand outs as they come.

Take Care,
Carla Jordan
