SUMMARY:Lenten Dinner and Program
DESCRIPTION:2019 Lenten Series: Mission and Tradition \nPlease join us as we commemorate Lent in 2019 with a series devoted to “Mission and Tradition” in the Moravian Church. We will look at Moravian congregations around the world and the ways in which their identities have been shaped by their mission stories and their special traditions. We will hear from speakers who know these areas well and can share insights into the history\, customs\, and traditions of Moravians there. The series has been put together by Central’s History Committee. \nOn each of the six Wednesday evenings\, we will begin with supper in Nitschmann Hall at 6pm\, followed by the program at 7pm. \nMarch 6: Ash Wednesday Service\, Gemeinhaus Saal (Moravian Museum) \nPaul Peucker\, Archivist of the Moravian Church Northern Province and Central member\, will provide historical background for the series through a discussion of the role traditions play in our Moravian identity. \nSupper provided by the Sacristan Corps \nMarch 13: Europe \nA slide presentation by the Central Travelers from their July 2018 historical tour of Moravian settlement communities in Western Europe. Coordinated by Central member Mary Brown\, this program will offer glimpses of what was seen and learned about church history and traditions in the Czech Republic\, Germany\, the Netherlands\, and Denmark. \nSupper provided by the Central Choirs \nMarch 20: Alaska \nCentral member Lyn Chynoweth\, who grew up in Kwethluk\, Alaska\, the daughter (and granddaughter) of Moravian missionaries\, will reflect on the history and traditions of Moravians in Alaska\, from her personal experience as well as the stories learned from her parents and grandparents. \nSupper provided by the Men’s Bible Study & Church Family Life \nMarch 27: Zambia / Caribbean / Jamaica \nPaul Silwamba\, pastor of the Moravian Church in Zambia (southern Africa) and a first-year seminary student at Moravian\, will talk about traditions of the church in his country.
