SUMMARY:Feast of the Transfiguration (Three-Year Series C)
DESCRIPTION:In The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod\, Transfiguration is observed on the last Sunday of Epiphany. In the Three-Year Lectionary\, Transfiguration is on March 2\, 2025\, which is only three days before Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. \nOn this day\, the church recalls the event of Christ’s Transfiguration on the mountain\, revealing His divine nature to Peter\, James and John before He set His face toward Jerusalem\, where He would accomplish the world’s salvation by His death and resurrection for us. \nWhere Transfiguration is the last service before Ash Wednesday\, many congregations say farewell to the word “Alleluia.” As Judah would not sing their songs in the land of exile (Psalm 137)\, so the church sets aside our simplest word of joy and praise — until we take it up again in triumph on Easter: “Alleluia! Christ is risen; He is risen indeed\, Alleluia!” \nTo attend a worship service\, visit locator.lcms.org/church to find a local Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregation. Enter your zip code and click “Search” to see a list of area churches\, service times\, and contact information. \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind a church near me \n\nLiturgical color for Transfiguration\nWhite\, the color of light\, purity and completeness\, adorns the altar to commemorate the Transfiguration of Our Lord. On the mountain\, Christ’s face and clothes shone white as light (Matt. 17:2). In His light we see light and by Him\, “though our sins be as scarlet\, they shall be white as snow.” Christ’s incarnation and His resurrection\, His Gospel and its message to all nations are cause for our rejoicing. His purity before His Father becomes our purity. White reinforces this message of joy. \nWhite is also the appointed color for the Epiphany (Jan. 6) and the first Sunday following it\, which is often observed as the Baptism of Our Lord. It is also the color of Easter. On high festive days when white is appointed\, some congregations also use gold. \n\nThree-Year Series C Lectionary\nScripture readings for Transfiguration\n\nDeuteronomy 34:1–12\n\n\nHebrews 3:1–6\n\n\nLuke 9:28–36\n\nLectionary summary\nThe Glory of God Is Manifested in the Body of Christ\n“Moses was faithful in all God’s house as a servant\,” but Christ Jesus “has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses” (Heb. 3:3\, 5). A beloved and well-pleasing Son\, faithful even to the point of death\, Jesus’ own body was raised up on the third day as the house of God\, and He has brought us into that house through the waters of Holy Baptism (Heb. 3:6). Thus\, it was not Moses\, the lawgiver\, but his successor\, Joshua (the Hebrew name for Jesus)\, who led the people into the Promised Land (Deut. 34:1–4\, 9). Now\, on the Mount of Transfiguration\, the New Testament Joshua appears in the glory that He is about to manifest by His “departure” (exodus) in Jerusalem (Luke 9:31). Having entered the waters of the Jordan in His Baptism\, He passed through those waters and entered into glory by His cross and Passion. What He thereby accomplished in His own flesh and blood\, crucified and risen\, He reveals and gives to His Body\, the Church\, by the means of His Word. Therefore\, the Father declares from heaven\, “Listen to him!” (Luke 9:35). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind a church near me

SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Ash Wednesday\, which will be commemorated on March 5\, is the beginning of Lent and\, if Sundays are omitted\, is 40 days before Easter. \nAsh Wednesday begins the church’s annual season of penitence\, traditionally marked by fasting\, almsgiving and prayer. In the LCMS\, congregations often offer additional services in the week where the Word is preached and the Sacrament offered. \nAs the name suggests\, many congregations practice the ceremony of the imposition of ashes on this day. Ashes are a symbol of mortality and repentance\, since “the wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23). When the pastor places them on the penitents\, often in the shape of a cross\, he speaks a sobering reminder: “Remember that you are dust\, and to dust you shall return” (Gen. 3:19). \nWe ourselves will not overcome the temptations of Satan\, our sinful flesh and death\, but Christ our champion will. Throughout the coming season\, we will watch as He endures and overcomes the devil with his works and ways\, suffers willingly for our sakes\, and redeems us by His blood and Passion. Faith trusts in Him and believes\, even from the ash heap\, that “a broken and contrite heart\, O God\, you will not despise” (Psalm 51:17). \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind a church near me \n\nLiturgical color for Ash Wednesday and Lent\nOn Ash Wednesday\, the altar is adorned with violet or with black. The calendar calls for black only twice — Good Friday and Ash Wednesday. There is no mistaking the message of this somber color: Black is the absence of light. Ash Wednesday calls for sober reflection on the outcome of sin\, and Good Friday on the price of our redemption. \nWithout Christ’s sacrifice on the day the sky turned dark and hid the light of the sun\, there would be no bright Light of Christ to live in\, nor new life in Christ to enjoy. Yet we do not grieve as others do\, without hope (1 Thess. 4:13). \n\nThree-Year Series C\nScripture readings\n\nJoel 2:12–19\n\n\n2 Corinthians 5:20b–6:10\n\n\nMatthew 6:1–6\, 16–21\n\nLectionary summary\nReturn to the Lord Your God with All Your Heart\nOn Ash Wednesday\, we come down from the mountain with Jesus and set our face toward His cross and Passion in Jerusalem. We make our pilgrimage with Him by way of repentance\, and thus we return to our dying and rising in Holy Baptism. Christ Jesus\, “who knew no sin\,” became our sin\, so that by His death we are released from sin and in His resurrection we “become the righteousness of God” (2 Cor. 5:21). As God has thereby reconciled the world to Himself in Christ\, “now is the favorable time; behold\, now is the day of salvation” (2 Cor. 6:2). He has provided the sacrificial Lamb\, and He has left “a blessing behind him\, a grain offering and a drink offering” (Joel 2:14) in the Eucharist. He summons us to return to Him with all our heart because He is “gracious and merciful\, slow to anger\, and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13). We do so with faith and confidence in Him\, and so we pray to Him as our Father\, give to the needy from a heart of love\, and fast for the sake of repentance (Matt. 6:3–4\, 6\, 17–18). \n\nOne-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nJoel 2:12–19\n\n\n2 Peter 1:2–11\n\n\nMatthew 6:1–21\n\nLectionary summary\nReturn to the Lord Your God with All Your Heart\, for He Has Reconciled You to Himself\n“Consecrate a fast; call a solemn assembly; gather the people” (Joel 2:15–16). Lent\, with its corporate fast\, begins today. “Remember that you are dust\, and to dust you shall return” (Imposition of Ashes\, from Gen. 3:19). “Who knows? God may turn and relent and turn from his fierce anger” (Jonah 3:9). We know. Faith believes that\, for Christ’s sake\, “a broken and contrite heart\, O God\, you will not despise” (Psalm 51:17). He is “gracious and merciful\, slow to anger\, and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13); therefore\, we do not hesitate to return to Him “with all [our] heart\, with fasting\, with weeping\, and with mourning” (v. 12). He raises the dead\, as we shall see in 40 days’ time. Satan opposes such reconciliation and life. He would twist our discipline into self-serving pride (Matt. 6:1–12)\, leading us into unbelief and unfruitfulness until we fall from the Lord’s “precious and very great promises” (2 Peter 1:4\, 8). For this reason\, our Lenten discipline not only gives something up but also takes up the sustenance and exercise of faith: hearing His Word and turning from ourselves—to God in prayer and to our neighbor with charity. “Make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue\, and virtue with knowledge\, and knowledge with self-control\, and self-control with steadfastness\, and steadfastness with godliness\, and godliness with brotherly affection\, and brotherly affection with love” (v. 5–7). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind a church near me

SUMMARY:YouthLead Training
DESCRIPTION:LCMS Youth Ministry will host a YouthLead Training event Saturday afternoon\, March 8\, to noon Tuesday\, March 11\, 2025\, at the Pallotine Renewal Center in the St. Louis suburb of Florissant. \nWho can attend Youthlead?\nAny high school youth who is an active member of an LCMS congregation and desires to be a leader along with adults who desire to mentor young leaders. \nIt is preferred that teens attend with an adult leader from their congregation\, although arrangements can be made for teens to come unaccompanied. \nHow much does it cost?\nRegistration is $375 per attendee\, which covers food and housing during the training\, transportation to and from the airport if needed\, supplies and a T-shirt. Attendees are responsible for their transportation to and from St. Louis. \nWe encourage you to contact your district before you register as some districts have support for those attending this training. \nWhat happens at a YouthLead Training event?\nYouth are equipped for leadership in two key ways. First\, we engage them in studying God’s Word through a Bible study they experience and are trained to lead back home. Second\, we focus on their unique identity and vocations as well as practical leadership skills that will benefit them in all aspects of servant leadership. \nThis annual training event is led by our teen Executive Team and gives fellow teens the tools they need to mature in their faith\, become leaders in their congregations\, and reach out to their peers with the love of Christ. \nThis year’s curriculum will focus on caring for those struggling or in crisis. Our leadership training will develop an attendee’s skill set\, including how to communicate as a church leader. \nIf you have questions about the event\, email LCMS Youth Ministry at youth.ministry@lcms.org. \nDownload flyer \nRegister \n\nLCMS Youth Ministry\n\nlcms.org/youth\n\n\nyouth.ministry@lcms.org\n\n\n888-843-5267\n\n\nfacebook.com/LCMSyouth\n\n\nfacebook.com/lcmsgathering\n\n\ntwitter.com/LCMSyouth

SUMMARY:Annunciation of our Lord
DESCRIPTION:The Annunciation of our Lord will be observed on March 25. The Annunciation commemorates the visit of the angel Gabriel to the blessed Virgin Mary\, announcing that the eternal Son of God would take up human flesh in her womb and\, in accordance with Isaiah’s prophecy\, be born of a virgin. \nHis message declared that God showed undeserved kindness to Mary and\, by faith in His Word\, Christ was conceived in her. In this way\, she is a godly example of faith for us also — how a Christian hears the Words and promises of God and says\, “Behold\, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38). \nThe Annunciation is appointed for March 25\, from which date Christmas came to be observed as the birth of Christ (nine months later). When the Annunciation falls in Passiontide\, Holy Week or Easter\, it is observed at another time. \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind church near me \n\nLiturgical color for the Annunciation\nWhite\, the color of purity and completeness\, adorns the altar to commemorate the Annunciation of Our Lord. In His light we see light\, and by Him “though our sins be as scarlet\, they shall be white as snow.” Christ’s incarnation and His resurrection\, His Gospel and its message to all nations are cause for our rejoicing. His purity before His Father becomes our purity. White reinforces this message of joy. \nWhite is also the appointed color for the 12 days of Christmas\, Epiphany (Jan. 6) and the first Sunday following it\, which is observed as the Baptism of Our Lord. It is also the color for Easter. \n\nThree-Year Series and One-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nIsaiah 7:10–14\n\n\nHebrews 10:4–10\n\n\nLuke 1:26–38\n\nLectionary summary\nIncarnate by the Holy Spirit\, Born of the Virgin Mary and Made Man\n“It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins” (Heb. 10:4). But “nothing will be impossible with God” (Luke 1:37). He opens ears to hear and wombs to conceive. “Let it be to me according to your word\,” says St. Mary (Luke 1:38). The Most High who once dwelt in the tabernacle comes to overshadow Mary\, who believes the angel’s “annunciation” (Luke 1:35). “The virgin shall conceive and bear a son\, and shall call his name Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14). In Jesus Christ\, God is with us — even from the moment of His conception. This miracle\, that Mary should become the mother of God\, will be a sign against the proud in Israel; it is the fulfillment of the prophecies of Isaiah and David. “I delight to do your will\, O my God\,” says Christ (Psalm 40:8). From Mary’s flesh\, the Most High has prepared a body for His Son (Heb. 10:5)\, a body to be offered “once for all” as the sacrifice that alone takes away sins and gives a righteousness apart from the Law (Heb. 10:10). Through His conception\, life and death\, we have been sanctified. God favors us in this child. And like the blessed Virgin Mary\, blessed “are those who hear the word of God and keep it” (Luke 11:28). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind church near me

SUMMARY:Palm Sunday
DESCRIPTION:Palm Sunday\, also known as the Sunday of the Passion\, will be commemorated on Sunday\, April 13\, 2025. \nTo attend a Palm Sunday service\, visit locator.lcms.org/church to find a local Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregation. Enter your zip code and click “Search” to see a list of area churches\, service times\, and contact information. \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind church near me \n\nLiturgical color for Palm Sunday\nScarlet will adorn the altar on Palm Sunday through Maundy Thursday. It is a color worth investing in because it stands in contrast to the traditional red that is used on Festival Sundays. Scarlet’s use during the somber days of Holy Week help to offer a different message. As the Manual on the Liturgy points out\, “scarlet is a color anciently associated with the passion … the color of blood” (p. 25). Violet may also be used where Scarlet vestments are not present. \n\nScripture readings for Palm Sunday\nThree-Year Series C Lectionary\n\nJohn 12:12–19 (Procession)\n\n\nDeut. 32:36–39\n\n\nPsalm 118:19–29 or Psalm 31:9–16\n\n\nPhil. 2:5–11\n\n\nLuke 22:1–23:56 or Luke 23:1–56 or John 12:20–43\n\nLectionary summary\nThe Cross and Passion of Our Lord Are the Hour of His Glor\nThe King of Israel comes into His royal glory by the path of humble obedience “to the point of death\, even death on a cross” (Phil. 2:8). He “goes as it has been determined” (Luke 22:22)\, according to the Scriptures\, willingly submitting to His Father’s plan for the salvation of sinners. “Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name” (Phil. 2:9). His suffering and death open the way of repentance for the forgiveness of sins because He goes to the cross bearing the sins of the world. In His resurrection\, God the Father vindicates His people and has compassion on His servants (Deut. 32:36). He kills to make alive; He wounds in order to heal. In remembrance of Him\, we praise God\, confessing “that Jesus Christ is Lord\, to the glory of God the Father” (Phil. 2:11) \n\nOne-Year Series Lectionary\n\nMatthew 21:1–9 (Procession) or John 12:12–19 (Procession)\n\n\nZechariah 9:9–12\n\n\nPsalm 118:19–29 or Psalm 31:9–16\n\n\nPhilippians 2:5–11\n\n\nMatthew 26:1—27:66 or Matthew 27:11–54\n\nLectionary summary\nThe Cross and Passion of Our Lord Are the Hour of His Glory\n“Behold\, your King is coming to you . . . humble and mounted on a donkey” (Zech. 9:9–12; Mt. 21:1–9). Our Lord rides in this humble fashion because He is entering Jerusalem to humble Himself even to the point of death on a cross (Phil. 2:5–11). His kingly crown will not be made of gold but of thorns\, the sign of sin’s curse. For His royal reign is displayed in bearing this curse for His people\, saving us from our enemies by sacrificing His own life. The sinless One takes the place of the sinner so that the sinner can be freed and bear the name “Barabbas\,” “son of the Father” (Matthew 26 and 27). It is at the name of this exalted Savior\, Jesus\, that we bow in humble faith. With the centurion who declared\, “Truly this was the Son of God!” (Mt. 27:54)\, we are also given to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord\, to the glory of God the Father (Phil. 2:11). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind church near me

For Jesus is our Passover Lamb who has been sacrificed for us. He reclines at table with us and feeds us with His own flesh and blood: “the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain” (Heb. 10:20). In Christ\, the Lord remembers us in mercy and remembers our sin no more; He forgives us all our iniquity (Jer. 31:34; Heb. 10:17).

By eating His body and drinking His blood\, we proclaim to all the world that Jesus is\, indeed\, our Passover Lamb (Ex. 12:1–14)\, who was sacrificed for us on Calvary. In Christ\, the Lord remembers us in mercy and remembers our sin no more; He forgives us all our iniquity. With such love\, he “loved His own who were in the world\,” and even loves us “to the end” (John 13:1).

SUMMARY:Good Friday

The calendar calls for its use only twice — Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. There’s no mistaking the message that this sober color gives. Black is the absence of light. Good Friday\, or Black Friday in combination with Ash Wednesday\, calls for sober reflection on the cost of our redemption. \nWithout Christ’s sacrifice on the day the sky turned dark and hid the light of the sun\, there would be no bright Light of Christ to live in\, nor new life in Christ to enjoy. \n\nThree-Year Series C\nScripture readings\n\nPsalm 22 or Psalm 31\n\n\nIsaiah 52:13—53:12\n\n\nHebrews 4:14-16; 5:7–9\n\n\nJohn 18:1-19:42 or John 19:17-30\n\nLectionary summary\nBehold the Lamb of God\, Who Takes Away the Sin of the World\nJesus\, the Lamb of God\, is led to the slaughter of His cross as the Sacrifice of Atonement for the sin of the world. “Despised and rejected by men\, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief” (Is. 53:3)\, He is the righteous Servant who justifies many by His innocent suffering and death. He bears our griefs and sorrows; He is wounded for our transgressions; He is crushed for our iniquities; He suffers our chastisement; “and with his wounds we are healed” (Is. 53:4–5).

In perfect faith and faithfulness\, He shares all our weaknesses and temptations\, “yet without sin” (Heb. 4:15). As our merciful High Priest\, He brings us to the Father in peace\, “makes intercession for the transgressors” (Is. 53:12) and joins our prayers to His own\, so that we are heard “because of his reverence” (Heb. 5:7). From His cross\, He gives us His Spirit (John 19:30)\, washes us with water from His side and covers us with His blood (John 19:34). \n\nOne-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nPsalm 22 or Psalm 31\n\n\nIsaiah 52:13-53:12\n\n\n2 Corinthians 5:14–21\n\n\nJohn 18:1-19:42\n\nLectionary summary\nBehold the Lamb of God\, Who Takes Away the Sin of the World\nJesus\, the Lamb of God\, is led to the slaughter of His cross as the sacrifice of atonement for the sins of the world. “Despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows\, and acquainted with grief” (Is. 53:3)\, He is the righteous Servant who justifies many by His innocent suffering and death.

SUMMARY:Easter
DESCRIPTION:Easter — the Resurrection of Our Lord — will be celebrated on Sunday\, April 20\, 2025. \nBy the shed blood of Christ\, eternal death has passed over us\, and now we pass with Christ through death into life everlasting. For Christ the crucified One is risen! \nTo attend an Easter service\, visit locator.lcms.org/church to find a local Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod congregation. Enter your zip code and click “Search” to see a list of area churches\, service times\, and contact information. \nIf you are homebound\, traveling\, or otherwise unable to attend a service in person\, KFUO Radio airs worship services throughout the church year. Visit KFUO.org to view the schedule and listen to services. \nFind a church near me \n\nLiturgical colors for Easter\nThe altar will be adorned with white\, which is the color of purity and completeness and the color for all major feasts of Christ. The theme for the “great fifty days” of Easter is supported by the use of white. This color\, used primarily during these Sundays\, assists in bearing the message that “though your sins be as scarlet\, they shall be white as snow.” Christ’s triumph from the grave on Resurrection day is the cause for our rejoicing. His purity before his Father becomes our purity. White reinforces that message of joy. \nGold may also be used for Easter Sunday and major feasts of Christ. Gold represents value and worth. The golden festival of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the event that gives our lives meaning and worth. He is worthy of our praise as we adorn his altar with the color of splendor. \n\nThree-Year Series C\nScripture readings\n\nPsalm 16\n\n\nIsaiah 65:17–25\n\n\n1 Cor. 15:19–26\n\n\nLuke 24:1–12\n\nLectionary summary\nChrist’s Resurrection Is the Firstfruits of the New Creation\nThe Lord has promised to “create new heavens and a new earth” (Is. 65:17)\, in which His people shall abide in peace and joy. That new creation has begun in the bodily resurrection of Christ Jesus. All the baptized belong to that new creation. Reborn of water and the Holy Spirit\, they are “the offspring of the blessed of the LORD” (Is. 65:23). The Lord rejoices and is glad in them; He hears and answers their prayers. For “if in Christ we have hope in this life only\, we are of all people most to be pitied” (1 Cor. 15:19). But Christ Jesus has been raised\, “the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 Cor. 15:20). We may be “perplexed about this” (Luke 24:4)\, perhaps even frightened and brought to our knees\, because it seems like an “idle tale” (Luke 24:11). But faith clings to the Word of Christ and finds His resurrected body — not in the tomb\, but in His Holy Supper. \n\nOne-Year Series\nScripture readings\n\nPsalm 118:15–29\n\n\nJob 19:23–27\n\n\n1 Corinthians 5:6–8 or 1 Corinthians 15:51–57\n\n\nMark 16:1–8\n\nLectionary summary\nChrist’s Resurrection Means That We Will One Day Be Raised\n“Christ\, our Passover lamb\, has been sacrificed” (1 Cor. 5:7). By the shed blood of Christ\, the Lamb of God\, eternal death has passed over us. Now we pass with Christ through death into life everlasting. For Christ the crucified One is risen! The stone has been rolled away from the tomb\, revealing that the tomb could not hold Him (Mark 16:1–8). Now our Redeemer lives eternally to save us from sin and Satan and the grave\, and we can live in the sure hope of our own bodily resurrection with Christ. “After my skin has been thus destroyed\, yet in my flesh I shall see God” (Job 19:26). Feasting on the living Christ\, who is our meat and drink indeed\, we boldly say: “O death\, where is your victory? O death\, where is your sting? . . . But thanks be to God\, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor. 15:54–55\, 57). \n\nLCMS Worship\n\nlcms.org/worship\n\n\nWorship planning resources\n\n\nSubscribe to monthly resources email\n\nFind a church near me
