Convention of the Ukrainian Lutheran Church


On October 20 and 21, 2010 Convention of the Ukrainian Lutheran Church took place in Kremenets. Rev. Steven Petersen has greeted the Convention on behalf of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod, John Moldstad and Bishop Horpynchuk has read a greeting for the Convention from the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod President, Rev. Mark Schroeder. The delegates of the Convention have thanked both ELS and WELS for the support they provide to the Ukrainian Lutheran Church.  The Convention has approved the work of the officers of the ULC and her committees. Rev. Neal Schroeder (WELS) has been the essayist of the Convention.  His interesting and edifying essay was titled “Stewardship: some Scripture, statements, suggestions, stories”. The Convention delegates have discussed the essay and thanked Pastor Schroeder for interesting insights and for his help to the ULC. Pastor Neal Schroeder has also been the preacher at the Convention Liturgy where 2 new ULC pastors were ordained: Pastor Taras Bosiuk to serve at the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Simferopol, the Crimea and Pastor Oleksandr Kulchytskiy to serve in Tiraspol Lutheran Church in the Republic of Moldova. A special surprise for the delegates of the ULC Convention has been Holy Cross Lutheran Church children choir presentation.  The next ULC Convention is scheduled for 2012.
