In May, the Lutheran Church of Southern Africa (LCSA) offered a workshop for lay preachers, deaconesses, and LTS students, led by Dr. John Messmann (LCMS – Fort Worth, TX, USA) on the theme “Called by the Gospel: To Christ – for the World. The workshop was hosted by and took place at the LTS. LCSA church workers from Newcastle (KZN), the North-West Province, and Gauteng Diocese attended the workshop. LCSA Bishop M. Maragelo preached at the divine service of the ELC congregation Arcadia at the conclusion of the workshop.

The LTS is very privileged to host its second set of intensives for 2019. Drs. John Nordling (CTSFW, IN, USA) and Elliot Sithole (LCSA/SA Bible Society) are on campus for two weeks to teach courses on 1 Peter and Jeremia respectively. These exegetes supplement the LTS faculty and come with a great deal of experience and skills enabling them to teach these courses. We are very grateful to have them on campus and pray that the intensives provide a time of fruitful exchange and learning. The Lord’s blessings. Welcome!
A word of welcome is extended also to LCSA Bishop Modise Maragelo who visited the campus and students. Bishop Maragelo represents the LCSA, one of the member churches behind the LTS.
The distinguished guests are pictured here with Rev. Nkambule and Rector Winterle.

On Friday, 19 October, LCSA Bishop S. Modise Maragelo served as preacher during matins at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Tshwane. Afterwards, Bishop Maragelo handed to Rector Winterle three sets of the new systematics volumes recently published by Concordia Publishing House for the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, our partner church body in the USA. The dogmatics volumes are a gift from the International Lutheran Council (ILC) in the person of Dr. Albert B. Collver, assistant to LCMS President Matthew Harrison. Bishop Maragelo kindly brought the books back with him in his personal luggage after the recent ILC conference in Antwerpen, Belgium. These sets are intended for the LTS library for student reference and also for use by LTS staff members. The FELSISA also received sets of the same volumes donated by the ILC, brought over by Bishop Dieter Reinstorf.
LTS staff and students are very grateful for these very generous donations and look forward to drawing from them and putting them to good use.
