Seminary Life

We are students from over 30+ synods of the ELCA every year, from various denominations and religious traditions, from places throughout the world.
We are a diverse faculty that includes experts in the fields of Bible, history, ministry, theology, ethics and more.
We are a staff committed to the school and neighborhood, many of whom live in close proximity to the seminary.
We build community together in a variety of ways and through all our beautiful diversity, God continues to make us one body.
To build community in any place takes commitment. Community life is a deep value at LSTC. There are many ways in which students take leadership in creating meaningful community life both institutionally and informally.
We are a community that fosters dialog around complex issues, serves our neighbors and creates opportunities for rest and fun.
We are a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) seminary. Read our RIC statement here.
