Lutheran Church in Queensland - LCANZ
🌿🙏United in Hope, in Cairns🙏🌿📌If God sparks an interest to serve the communities of Far North Queensland deep within you, please contact Rev David Schmidt, Assistant Bishop for Mission, on 07 3511 4000.📌Our United in Hope Campaign is at the halfway mark! To find out more, or to give, go to qld.lca.org.au/news-events/united-in-hope/In Far North Queensland, where there are two Lutheran parishes, the ‘tyranny of distance’ is something to genuinely be reckoned with.The Cairns Parish includes the congregations of Cairns and Atherton and encompasses Peace Lutheran College at Kamerunga. Hope Vale Parish also includes Wujal Wujal and Coen.Both parishes are without a full time pastor at present, with Emeritus Pastor David Spanagel providing locum services that cover the whole region, and the pastor for Peace Lutheran College, Pastor Adam Eime, supporting the services offered in Cairns.The congregation in Cairns is a relatively small group who continues to provide a regular ministry to the community. The Cairns Parish are contemplating a Call at present, as well as considering how the Hope Vale Parish may best be serviced. During the current pastoral vacancy members have willingly stepped up to continue to provide the essential elements of ministry.➡ Keep reading: qld.lca.org.au/2026/04/21/united-in-hope-cairns/➡ The latest LCAQD eNews is here! tinyurl.com/5cp7e5f7 ...

Lutheran Church in Queensland - LCANZ
Hey everyone, it’s Milton the Cassowary back again with another stop on our Listening and Learning journey—this time from Rosewood Parish.This parish brings together three congregations—Minden, Rosevale, and Rosewood—and what really stood out to me was how connected they are. There’s a genuine sense that they’re not just three separate churches, but one parish family doing life together. They share similar hopes, challenges, and a deep appreciation for each other, which makes them wonderfully cohesive.There have been some great moments over the past year too—an Advent evening that gathered people in reflection and hope, and a powerful Good Friday witness through “Three Crosses on the Hill” (yep… it even made the paper! And they have a site on Facebook www.facebook.com/share/p/1VCpoqfdKu/ ). It’s a beautiful example of stepping out into the community together.Looking ahead, they’re exploring ways to connect more locally, including building relationships with the nearby aged care community at Cabanda.Like many, they’re asking an honest question: how do we keep engaging in mission locally, especially as we grow older? But with the strength of their shared life together, there’s a quiet confidence they’ll keep finding a way.Thanks, Rosewood Parish—you’ve shown me the beauty of doing faith together. ...
