2020 Marks the start of a new Three-Year Cycle for the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod

Current Overtures

Two new overtures have been developed by LCMS Pastors and Lay Persons, and are

endorsed by the Denver Society of Creation. We hope that LCMS Pastors and Lay Persons will support these overtures and see that they are introduced for a vote in their circuit forums coming up in the next three to four months.

However, no statement was made on the age of the earth. This overture would set a limit on the age of the earth of less than 10,000 years. This overture was passed unanimously by the Rocky Mountain District Pastor’s Conference on October 16, 2020. Our intent, with this overture, is NOT to make new doctrine, but to confess and bind ourselves to Biblical Doctrine.
