Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church - Eve of National Thanksgiving Divine Service (11/27/2024)
Saint Athanasius Lutheran Church in Vienna, VA is a parish in the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church and a member of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. Worship at Saint Athanasius is according to the historic Liturgy of the Church. In this Liturgy God serves us with the very gifts of heaven: His life-giving Word and Sacraments. Services at Saint Athanasius are not designed for entertainment or sensation, but to prepare broken and repentant sinners to receive these gifts of Word and Sacrament, and to know the truth of the incomparable riches of the grace showered on us by our gracious and loving Heavenly Father. In this Liturgy we join in communion with Christians throughout the ages in the worship of the eternal, triune God -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Please come and join us to share in the good news of forgiveness in Christ! http://www.saint-athanasius.org LSB 785 -- "We Praise You, O God" Text: Julia B. Cory, 1882–1963, alt.
