Dear ALCM members,
We are trying something new this month. Instead of the regular print greeting, this month's Lenten greeting from President Anne Krentz Organ is available as a video greeting as well as in print. (Depending on the speed of your computer, the video greeting may take a minute to load - be patient!)
Let us know what you think!

In memoriam: Peter J.L. Perella ALCM member Rev. Peter J.L. Perella, 35, died on February 24, 2014 at home after a long battle with sinus cancer. Pastor Perella was an ordained pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and most recently served as its Director for Worship Formation and Liturgical Resources at its national headquarters in Chicago. As the Director for Worship, Pastor Perella oversaw the ministry of word and sacrament on behalf of the Presiding Bishop, and directed the work of the churchwide worship staff. This work included the development of worship resources and leading the continuing conversation about worship renewal in the life of the ELCA.
