The Lutheran Church And Its Sunday School

By Kristen Baird


Molded by Christian doctrines and governed by faith, it surely feels wonderful being guided by the light of Jesus. And though many are enlightened by His supernatural existence, others simply consider Him as a myth with whom people draw strength in times of trouble. Questions about His grace and divinity have been everywhere but what can be there to ask knowing His love for everyone has been manifested since day one? It is quite saddening, though, that more and more individuals today have become less and less religious.

Christianity is the biggest religion so far and one of the oldest denominations therein is Protestantism. Being part of the biggest discipleship is something that brings genuine euphoria to people who have been ruled by Christian doctrines although some of the critical values of their religion have been subtly disregarded over the years especially by the new generation. Nonetheless, church leaders have been keen on reviving the lost values through implementing programs with which the Lutheran church Wilmington has been actively involved.

Lutheranism was established by an Augustinian Order friar, Martin Luther, who later became the Father of the Reformation. Lutheranism is patterned to the principles and practices of Catholic Church. Baptism has been an essential part of such religious movement, and thus, believing adults as well as infants are needed to be baptized.

Meanwhile, for someone who wants to help draw the lost flock together while retaining the values taught by Jesus, it can be a wonderful idea to volunteer as a teacher to the Sunday school. This is pretty much easier than a regular school. Teachers need not prepare difficult quizzes for their students or get them to go to places where their lessons are best understood.

Catechism is never boring. Not only can this get students to be introduced to His divinity, they can make plenty of new friends in the church, too. And what will be more motivating than being open not only to spiritually and religion but also how to get life to become more exciting owing to the people around?

There must be plenty of churches out there that need more volunteers. The odd is, interested parties might be required to serve some extra hours if necessary. Volunteers, however, will be asked for their most preferred time before both parties agree about the volunteer job.

Initial background check will be done upon application but aspirants need not worry. If they have nothing to hide, nothing can surely hinder them from being part of it. This, however, requires applicants to become church members. If not, this does not necessarily stops them volunteering.

Being a volunteer does not mean one has to be entirely tied up with all religious activities. It is important to know that volunteers are there to serve the community rather than the mendicants raise money for themselves or the group. Of course, they can if they want to.

Volunteering to teach is different from going on a mission. Individuals interested only in the Sunday school are not required to go out where they can spread the world of God better. And besides, they need the consent of the ministry before they can be anywhere.
