“Light for the Darkness,” a new worship service designed to help congregations celebrate Ablaze!, is now available free on the LCMS World Mission Web site at www.lcmsworldmission.org/ablaze.
Ablaze! is LCMS World Mission’s initiative that seeks to reach 100 million people with the Gospel by 2017, the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.
Other new resources, which may be downloaded free from the www.lcmsworldmission.org/resources site, include:
