Read MoreDr. King’s message of unity is the theme for the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago (LSTC) Martin Luther King Jr. Day commemoration Monday, January 18.

The recorded event will go live at 11:15 a.m. Central (10:15am MST, 9:15 am PST) on LSTC’s Facebook and YouTube sites.

Prospective seminary students from across the metro Phoenix area gathered to learn first hand about our ELCA seminaries. We spent 2 hours with PLTS, LSTC, hearing about course options, community engagement, and scholarship availability. We hope the event expands across the GCS and eventually all 7 seminaries will be easily represented to prospective leaders for our church.
