Evangelical Lutheran Mission Society for the Chinese

2025 Annual Chinese Seminar

The Evangelical Lutheran Mission Society for the Chinese (ELMSC) will hold its Tenth Annual Chinese Seminar on Holy Scripture and Luther’s Small Catechism June 19-23, 2025 on the campus of Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana (CTS-FW). The seminar is designed especially for Mandarin-speaking North American Chinese Christians who would like to engage in a deeper study of Scripture and the Catechism using Mandarin Chinese. The seminary location was chosen also to encourage participants toward possibly later studying to be a pastor or deaconess in the Lutheran Church. Participants will study (in Mandarin Chinese) Holy Scripture (this year the Gospel according to John) and Luther’s Small Catechism (this year focusing on the First Article of the Creed). The prayer offices of Matins and Compline will also be conducted each day (in Mandarin Chinese). On Sunday morning, attendees will attend Divine Service at Redeemer Lutheran Church, Ft. Wayne. The presenters for the seminar are all pastors of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod (LCMS). Registration is limited to 20
participants.

福音路德會華人宣道協會將於2025年6月19-23日主辦第十屆『聖經及基督信仰小問答研討會。』地點是在美國印第安納州韋恩堡市的協同神學院。此研討會特別為想要用普通話多學習聖經及信仰小問答的北美華人基督徒開辦。所學習的題目包括聖經中關於得救的基本教導,聖經其中一本書的研究(今年為約翰福音),以及基督信仰小問答 (今年特別注重使徒信經第一段)。研討會的講員都是美國路德會密蘇裡總會(LCMS)的牧師。
