I don’t think I ever saw a Lutheran make the sign of the cross until the past 3-5 years. Now there are several of us who do it in our congregation. I’m not sure what that means, except that perhaps Lutherans are beginning to embrace their catholicity after a few generations of fleeing from it.

I have seen this in practice among the Lutheran churches I’ve attended till recently. As a child I attended a lutheran school and when asked why we didn’t I was told it was Catholic superstition.I’m not really sure why I’ve always felt drawn to the practice. Now as a mother attending to 2 small children it seems to help me stay mentally present during the service and brings my thoughts back to Christ when my mind would want to wander.
