Catechesis for Quinquagesima – February 15, 2023

February 07, 2024

On Wednesday nights, Trinity Lutheran Church(Herrin, IL) offers to both children and adults an opportunity for teaching with Learn-by-Heart at 6:30 PM and a catechetical service at 7:00 PM.


In this video from February 15, 2023, we learned “If Thy Beloved Son, O God(The Augustana Service Book and Hymnal #18, TLH #375), Small Catechism, Sacrament of the Altar, First Question and meaning, and Philippians 3:9 or 1 Corinthians 2:14.

This service is designed to prepare God’s people for the theme of the upcoming Sunday Divine Service.  The dialog sermon explains “Jesus Healing the Blind Man” (St. Luke 18:31-43), which is the Holy Gospel for Quinquagesima Sunday.

The service concludes with “Responsive Prayer for Catechesis” (pdf link below).


–Michael D. Henson, Pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church (Herrin, IL).
