In order to meet the diverse needs of congregations, you will gain a wide range of skills through completion of a Theology major and two minors. Your first minor must be chosen from one of five areas of church ministry. These include: Evangelism, Missions, Parish Teaching, Youth Ministry, and Social Ministry or Pre-Deaconess (for men, and for women intending to enroll in the deaconess programs at either of the LCMS seminaries). Your second minor is required to be Non-Profit Management. For those of you who really want to study more than one area of church ministry, it?s possible to do so by carefully choosing electives that apply.
While all courses and doctrine are taught in accord with the Lutheran confessions, men and women of any denomination are welcome to join this program. Only members of The Lutheran Church?Missouri Synod will be eligible to be rostered with the LCMS as a ?Minister of Religion Commissioned?Lay Minister.?
