Set Apart to Serve: Formation at Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne

How are future pastors and deaconesses formed at Concordia Theological Seminary (CTSFW)? The Rev. Dr. Jon Bruss (President of Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne, IN) and the Rev. Matt Wietfeldt (Assistant Vice President of Admission at Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne, IN) join Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve series to talk about what they love about being at CTSFW, the church work programs CTSFW offers, what campus life looks like, some things that make formation at CTSFW unique, opportunities like Christ Academy and Symposia which serve the church at large, recruitment efforts for future church workers, and first steps for someone considering church work programs. Learn more at ctsfw.edu. Christ’s church will continue until He returns, and that church will continue to need church workers. Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is an initiative of the LCMS to recruit church workers. Together, we pray for workers for the Kingdom of God and encourage children to consider church work vocations. Here are three easy ways you can participate in SAS: 1. Pray with your children for God to provide church workers. 2. Talk to your children about becoming church workers. 3. Thank God for the people who work in your congregation. To learn more about Set Apart to Serve, visit lcms.org/set-apart-to-serve. Have a topic you'd like to hear about on The Coffee Hour?
