We will be starting a new session of preLUDE; our membership and affirmation classes; from 12 October onwards. If you’re interested in finding out more about us, our faith our values and our practices in a more structured manner, this is the best place to start. preLUDE is a natural starting point in the lifelong journey of formation and is appropriate for people from a wide range of experiences.

preLUDE may be right for you if any of the following describe you and your current place in the journey of faith:

• I want to explore issues of faith, or a spiritual life, or relationship with God.
• I want to explore getting baptised.
• Although already baptised, I want to explore beyond the faith community in which I was baptised and am wondering about becoming part of BLC’s community life.
• I have been baptised and confirmed in another tradition, but want to explore becoming an Lutheran.
• I have always been a Lutheran, but at this point in my life I want to explore deepening my understanding of what it means to be a Lutheran.

The basic texts that we use are the Bible and Luther’s Small Catechism but we are intentional in making the experience open ended and interactive.

Individuals who participate in preLUDE will find that it can lead to a number of different possible next steps in their journey of faith: further questioning and exploration, baptism, affirmation of baptism vows, or membership into the Lutheran community via BLC. preLUDE is also useful to take for personal enrichment and spiritual nourishment.
