Set Apart to Serve: Providing First Article Gifts for Seminary Students

How does the seminary provide clothing and food for seminary students and their families? Deaconess Katherine Rittner, director of the Concordia Theological Seminary Fort Wayne food and clothing co-ops, joins Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve series to talk about her path to becoming director of the food and clothing co-ops, the anxieties that students and their spouses experience about seminary life, how God provides for seminarians and their families through the food and clothing co-ops, and CTSFW's plans for a new food and clothing co-op building. Learn about CTSFW 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?
