To enhance student learning and leadership formation outside of coursework, Luther Seminary is introducing graduate fellowships. Fellowships are co-curricular leadership development opportunities for small groups of students to explore focus topics and areas of ministry. Led by key staff and faculty, fellowships include learning from ministry practitioners, in-person retreats with other fellows, formal peer connecting, and experiential learning. Fellowships are resourced outside the Jubilee Scholarship. Next year, we will offer two fellowships: Beloved Community and Cultivating New Christian Communities.
- Beloved Community. As the Spirit transforms the world by empowering the proclamation of the gospel, we engage in this work by equipping future Christian public leaders who will work collaboratively against injustices and cultivate courage and sacrificial love in their communities.
Contact Samuel Zalanga, szalanga001@luthersem.edu - Cultivating New Christian Communities. As God invites the church to explore new expressions of Christian community, we are responding by gathering a cohort of students passionate about this work to explore how God might be calling them to participate.
Contact Jody Nyenhuis, jnyenhuis001@luthersem.edu
Additional information on each fellowship will be available soon. Interested students can get more information in the open advising session during summer RFS on Thursday, June 13 at 11:45 a.m in the OCC dining room.
