OUTCOMES:
The program encourages seminarian involvement in the PNW initiative as part of their ongoing vision for ministry in the ELCA. Student projects will be implemented/tested in a local ministry context by the seminarian and may be posted on the PNW page of the ELCA as resources for congregations and distributed through the PNW network.
SCOPE:
Developed projects are intended to be practical in nature, which can be implemented within congregations, synod events, or faith-based organizations. Projects should align with the foci of PNW: accompaniment, advocacy, and awareness raising. For example, it might take the form of a bible study, devotions for Advent or Lent, podcasts, interactive youth events, etc.
