Regional young adult retreat

REGINA – Mount Olive Lutheran Church, assisted by Rev. Nigel Prozenko (Prince of Peace, Regina), hosted a Central Region young adults retreat over the final weekend in February, drawing participants from across the province, with some even travelling from Manitoba. Lutheran Church–Canada’s (LCC) Central Regional Pastor David Haberstock presented on Luther’s Small Catechism and the “anti-catechism” of the world that becomes the default spiritual education of people who fail to seek the Lord where He may be found in Word and Sacrament.

This was an encouraging opportunity for young people to get to know each other in person, worship, pray, sing, and study together. The weekend ended Sunday morning with Divine Service and a sermon from Rev. Ted Giese on the virtues of patience and perseverance in matters of faith, remembering the promises of God when life doesn’t unfold as desired or expected (Genesis 17:1-7, 15; Mark 8:27-38). Discussions are already underway for similar events in the future.
