The event was another great success:
October 7-9, 2018 (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday)
The Twenty-third Annual Oktoberfest! and Gottesdienst Central hosted the Rev. Dr. Thomas M. Winger, president of Concordia Lutheran Theological Seminary (CLTS), St. Catharines, Ontario.
Dr. Winger is the author of dozens of articles, many published in Lutheran Theological Review. He is the (co)editor of three books and a contributor to The Lutheran Study Bible. He has written studies for the theological commissions of Lutheran Church–Canada and the Evangelical Lutheran Church of England (ELCE). He also served as a member of the liturgy committee of Lutheran Service Book.
His topic: “Hints of the Liturgy in the Epistle to the Ephesians and Other New Testament Texts”
He is a recognized authority especially in liturgy and in Ephesians.
The event began Sunday the 7th with Vespers at 5 p.m. Following the service was our annual bratwurst banquet. When everyone has had their fill of brats and beer, Dr. Winger gave a synopsis of his Monday seminar. Following the banquet was the after-the-party party, at Father Eckardt’s home.
On Monday, October 8, the day began with Mass at 9 a.m. Following Mass and a continental breakfast, Dr. Winger held forth for the rest of the day. On Tuesday, October 9, the conference continued until about noon, with a special focus on the themes of our current and previous issue of Gottesdienst, namely: Weddings and Funerals with Father Eckardt, pastor at St. Paul’s, holding forth.
Here's an audio of the Sunday choral vespers.
