INTRODUCING THE LUTHERAN SERVICE BOOK 

For nearly eight years, the Commission on Worship has given careful
attention to the development of a new hymnal and agenda for congregations
and institutions of The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.

Now, in cooperation with Concordia Publishing House, the Commission is
pleased to present this new resource for use at the dawn of a new century.

Through the study and research of numerous committees and the testing and
responses of hundreds of pastors, musicians, and congregations, Lutheran
Service Book is uniquely poised to serve congregations of the Synod.

Among its many features, Lutheran Service Book offers:
*    fresh expressions of the Gospel 
*    services you know 
*    favorite hymns restored 

To introduce the LSB, workshops will be held in the following Texas District
