Description

This course will explore the history of the Lutheran diaconate, help students who are seeking rostered leadership as a Deacon/Deaconess to articulate the theology of diakonia, and engage practical ways Word and Service Ministers serve throughout the church. Students are required to participate in the retreat offered by the ELCA as a part of this course, and then participate in additional formation activities through Luther Seminary.
