The Association of Latvian Lutheran Women Theologians rejoices at the re-election of LELBP Archbishop Lauma Zušēvica to office! We join the wider Latvian Lutheran family around the world and wish Archbishop Lauma Zušēvica God’s guidance and blessing in her ministry!
“Almighty God!
Bless Archbishop Lauma with Your Spirit, that it may encourage and enlighten her as she continues to serve in the office of bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Latvia Abroad.
Sustain her as a shepherd who cares for Christ’s flock with love,
and guide our Church and its manifold ministries with wisdom and the courage of faith. Grant that she may draw strength and endurance from Your gifts of grace – from Your Word and the sacraments, as well as from the fellowship of our Church. Help us to support our Archbishop with prayers and active participation in the life of the Church, so that under her leadership all of us together – the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Latvia Abroad – may serve to Your glory and as a blessing to the Latvian people throughout the world. Amen!
Rev. Anita Vārsberga-Pāža,
Spiritual Deputy to the Archbishop”
