SBLC LENTEN EVENING SERIES: “The Hand of the Lord who ….”
It is no surprise that mentions of hands appear all over the Bible as God’s Word speaks to us
in ways that we can understand. All things are the work of the hand of the Lord (Psalm 102:25).
The Lord’s hand is active in creation, power, control over happenings of the world, judgment, and salvation. The hand of the Lord has come to us in Jesus. Examples throughout Scripture speak of the way that Christ used his hands, alongside his life-giving words, to bring forgiveness, life, and salvation. The work of Christ’s hands helps us to see the merciful and personal way that he has acted in love to save us and give us hope.
Here is the planned schedule of dates and themes ….

Friends of Lutheran Archives gathering, Thursday 27th March 2025
7pm for the AGM & 7.30pm for the General Meeting
Immanuel Lutheran Church, Archer Street, North Adelaide
The Biar family divided: Emigrants to two continents Speaker: Geoff Saegenschnitter While researching and publishing the Biar family history in Australia in 1971, Geoff Saegenschnitter discovered that the Biar family were of Wendish origin rather than German, and that two Biar brothers left their home in Groditz, Saxony within two months of each other in 1854. One went to Texas USA and the other to South Australia, never to see each other again. Quite by accident, 41 letters from SA to the Biar family in Texas from 1881 to 1926 to successive generations of the Biar family were found and have been translated. Today, Geoff maintains contact with the family in Australia, USA and Germany and is a member of the Wendish Heritage societies in SA, Victoria and Texas, and his presentation will focus on all these aspects. Geoff is the current Chairman of FoLA.
All welcome, supper included, $5 Donation
