Luther Movie
Return to Grace: Lutherās Life and Legacy was shown by more than 1,000 WELS congregations and groups in local movie theaters across the United States in 2017, helping to spread Lutherās message of Godās grace found in Scripture. A version of the movie also appeared on PBS. Northwestern Publishing House is now offering DVDs of Return to Grace. To learn more, visit nph.net.
WELS Technology has been focusing on security, efficiency and stewardship, and digital outreach. The development of the online called worker compensation calculator, which can be found at wels.net/cwcompcalc, streamlines the compensation process for congregations.Ā
