1 Sam 7,12
Then Samuel took a stone… and named it Ebenezer; for he said,
“Thus far the Lord has helped us.”
17+ years of the existence of Lutheran Academy in Martin can be assessed from various viewpoints. The most relevant one focuses on the help received from the Lord while building the school, especially in the search for an adequate school facility. Just like in the prophet Samuel, the stones – in our context bricks, mortar and plaster – are witnesses that despite all the troubles and hardships we can joyfully confess that “Thus far the Lord has helped us.” At the same time we realize that the stones are only a means to creating a space where the students – as living stones – can encounter God’s love, welcoming community and inspirational education.
Let us now look at some milestones from the times of building the school.
