To Widowed electress of Brandenburg - Martin Luther

TO THE WIDOWED ELECTRESS OF BRANDENBURG

Luther thanks her for sending a pastor to Brettin. February 10, 1544.

To the Serene High-born Princess Frau Elizabeth of the royal line of Denmark. Grace and peace! I was delighted to see from your Grace’s letter that you are willing to appoint M. Johannes Faber to a living in Brettin. Your Electoral Highness has thereby done a good work, and as they know him there, I hope they will accept him out of gratitude, and that he will bring forth fruit, and God give His blessing

thereto. It is ever my duty, and I am only too willing to serve your Grace. May the dear God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your Electoral Highness at all times. Amen.

MARTIN LUTHER . (De Wette.)
