Lenten Series:
“Jesus’ Words from the Cross”
In His final moments on the cross, Jesus spoke seven profound statements - words that echo through history and speak directly to our hearts today. These are not just words of suffering; they are words of hope, forgiveness, love, and victory. Each phrase reveals the depth of God’s grace and the power of His plan for redemption.
Join us as we journey through “Jesus’ Words from the Cross”, exploring what a selection of these statements mean for our lives. Discover how his words bring comfort in pain, assurance in uncertainty, and strength in surrender. This series will draw us closer to the heart of Christ and remind us of the incredible love displayed on Calvary.
Don’t miss this opportunity to reflect, renew, and rejoice in the message of the cross 7:30pm, each Wednesday evening during Lent.

FRIENDS OF LUTHERAN ARCHIVES - First gathering for 2026. Lobethal Relics.
Celebrating 180 years of the Lobethal College 26th Thursday at 7.30pm
Speaker: Andrew Zilm 139 Archer St, North Adelaide SA 5006
$5 Donation, Supper. All Welcome
The presentation will show a pictorial record of relic buildings in and around Lobethal.
The project was born out of the idea of celebrating the 180 years of the Lobethal College in 2025 as a ‘Relic’ as well as including other old buildings in and around Lobethal. Andrew Zilm has been a volunteer at Lobethal Archives and Historical Museum since 2022.
As far back as 1995, recorded some old buildings of Lobethal, primarily because of his family tree research.
