Lutheran schools hark back to when Martin Luther translated the Bible into the 'vernacular' (in his case, German); so that the people could access the Biblical truth directly. However, as literacy was not very high, education became necessary so that the 'common people' could read the Bible for themselves. Hence, the long tradition Lutheran day schools. We are very blessed in our small town Lutheran congregation to still have a pre-K through 8th grade school. I am a transplant to Texas, but my wife is an alumnus as were her parents and grandparents, now we have grandchildren there, as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
