Discerning God’s Call<\/em><\/h2>\n

January 25-27, 2026<\/h3>\n

Shores of St. Andrew in New London, MN<\/h4>\n

Join us for a 3-day retreat and a holy experiment that explores God\u2019s call on the lives of learners and the ways Christian leaders help those they serve in turn discern God\u2019s call. This retreat will also explore the theological concepts of vocation, the priesthood of all believers, and the multiple callings that followers of Jesus live.<\/p>\n

We will be gathering at the Shores of St. Andrew, a Green Lake Lutheran Ministries site in New London, MN.<\/p>\n

The retreat and course will be led by the Dean of Chapel, Dr. Steve Thomason with additional support from Jen Gruendler (Admissions) and Ashley Wheeler (Candidacy). If you have additional questions, please reach out to Jen (jgruendler001@luthersem.edu<\/a>).<\/p>\n
