The translation into Spanish of this third and last volume of Hermann Sasse’s letters to pastors is a significant milestone for theological study in Latin America. It completes the collection of Sasse’s nearly thirty years of correspondence with Lutheran pastors in Australia, the United States, and around the world. Each letter reflects his passionate commitment to the building up of the Church of Christ on earth and to the Lutheran Confessions.

Thanks to the partnership between GOOD NEWS and the VDMA Project, pastors and seminary students throughout the LAC region have been delighted to receive a new Spanish issue of GOOD NEWS magazine today.

“Abiding in Christ” (GN issue #25) is centered on Jesus’ words in John 15:5, 4: I am the vine; you are the branches. Abide in Me, and I in you. Focusing on this theme will help pastors and congregation members in their study of how God’s Word applies to their daily lives as they are branches attached to the vine – as they live as brothers and sisters in Christ – who together, abide in Christ.

The history of the last five centuries of the Lutheran church throughout the world were documented in a special edition of Logia magazine (Vol. 29, 4). Now these articles are also available in Spanish thanks to the LAC VDMA Project.

Over the past two days, La Santa Trinidad became the seventh volume of the Confessional Lutheran Dogmatics series to be electronically distributed to Pastors and seminary students in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region.

Today the VDMA Project distributed its 44th eBook,  Making Christian Counseling More Christ Centered (Haciendo Más Cristocéntrica La Consejería Cristiana) by Dr. Rick Marrs, professor at Concordia Seminary, Saint Louis.

The VDMA project is pleased to announce the first edition of a new daily devotion booklet in Spanish: La Palabra Del Señor Permanece Para Siempre, which means The Word of the Lord Endures Forever. The quarterly publication began in January 2023.

Pastors and seminary students across the Latin America and Caribbean region have started the new year with two new eBooks provided by the VDMA Project. Both volumes contain study documents published by the LCMS Commission of Theology and Church Relations. The first book focuses on the Life of the Christian, while the second is about the Life of the Church.

Today the VDMA Project distributed two more electronic issues of Good News magazine in Spanish to pastors and seminary students across Latin America.

The first magazine, focusing on the topic of “Worship,” will be a great teaching tool as LAC congregations begin to receive and use their new Himario Luterano (Lutheran Hymnal).

Lutheran pastors and seminary students working in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region. A resource that helps teach the Biblical jewel of the distinction between, and the application of, Law and Gospel, will be invaluable to our LCMS mission work, as well as to our Lutheran partner churches throughout many LAC countries. We thank God for the generosity of the producers of Good News (Defiance, MO). They allow the VDMA Project to share electronic copies of their magazines within the LAC region at no cost to the recipients.

Many pastors and seminary students in the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region are expressing their thanks and gratitude for another great resource provided through the VDMA Project: The Lord’s Supper by Rev. Dr. John Stephenson.
