More Ways to Give

Students with successful personal financial management skills are better able to effectively lead the church. They can engage and motivate their congregations’ members to think differently about sharing what they have. They can speak comfortably about what it means to live out of abundance, not scarcity. And they can show how faith grows when all areas of life are given back to God.

Raising up stewardship-savvy graduates is a priority at Luther Seminary.

Why a Fund?

Luther Seminary is committed to providing students with resources and a solid foundation through a permanent endowment called the Fund for Financial Leadership for Christian Communities. The fund seeks to raise $1.25 million, which will be matched dollar-for-dollar by an anonymous donor through Dec. 31, 2007.

What the Fund Will Do?

The Fund will support Luther Seminary initiatives that emphasize generosity and practical financial intelligence. It will work to:

  • Build Personal Money Management Skills
    Effective debt management and long-term financial goals clear a path to more effective leadership and generosity. This initiative will help students gain skills in money management and fiscal responsibility.
     
  • Teach Students to be Generous Givers
    God’s vision for us is that we would live lives of generosity that flow from the abundance of God’s gifts to us. Our goal is to pair students with faithful stewards who can talk about how their lives have been blessed through generous giving.
     
  • Produce Stewardship-Savvy Leaders
    Through course work and while on internship, students will explore ways to lead a congregation in stewardship growth.
