LUTHER'S SMALL CATECHISM
June 20, 2017
Find resources to order and download the Small Catechism in different languages and media types and additional educational tools.
Worship at Emmanuel follows the ancient practice of receiving the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ, through the hearing of the written word in the Bible and receiving of the sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Communion that are instituted by Christ's command. But within this ancient practice is great freedom in music and form that also reflects new expressions of this timeless faith of Christ's presence sustained by the work of the Holy Spirit among us.
"I must still read and study the catechism daily, yet I cannot master it as I wish, but must remain a child and a pupil of the catechism, and I do it gladly."
Martin Luther in his preface to the Large Catechism
