+ Thanksgiving 2020 +
Dear friends of the Old Latin School. We are so grateful for your support in trying times. You are very encouraging. Thank You very much.
Today we celebrate Thanksgiving with all our friends in the United States of America. We rejoice in God´s great miracles and saving wonders: His victory & our salvation. Ever since He brought back to light His most precious Gospel through Dr. Martin Luther, His praises have been sung by Christians around the world - sometimes with the beautiful words of Paul Gerhardt and translated by John Kelly (LSB 737):
Rejoice, my heart, be glad and sing, A cheerful trust maintain;
For God, the source of ev'rything, Your portion shall remain.
He is your treasure, He your joy, Your life and light and Lord,
Your Counselor when doubts annoy, Your shield and great reward.
Yes, we here at the Old Latin School in Lutherstadt Wittenberg have so much to be grateful for. Especially for being in God´s good books through Jesus Christ´s justification. Our chapel is open every day and Divine Services continue Sunday for Sunday. Our bookstore is open, but there´s no business. Tourism has come to a standstill. The Old Latin School needs Your support more than ever. Please, do support us with Your donation and keep us in Your prayers.
