Updated: Oct 26, 2023

Together Sharing Christ’s Love


Welcome to:

Redeemer, Macalister

St Mark’s, Dalby



Liturgical Colour: Red

'This is the anniversary of Luther's posting of his 95 theses concerning the sale of indulgences. In the sixteenth century various dates were suggested in various places for an annual commemoration of the reform of the church. The Thirty Years War disrupted these observances and provoked anti-Roman sentiment. In 1667, Elector John George II of Saxony re-established the festival and appointed it for October 31.
