Through your gifts and prayers, you are making a crucial investment in the future of the church and our communities. <strong>You are changing lives!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are among over <strong>4,100 donors and supporters<\/strong> of Luther Seminary. Here are a few ways you made a difference this year:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For the third consecutive year,<strong> all new incoming M.A. and M.Div. students received 100% tuition scholarships<\/strong> through the Jubilee Scholarship.<\/li>\n<li>In 2020, your gifts helped us to put forth <strong>101 graduates <\/strong>for Christian communities.<\/li>\n<li><strong>55% of 2020 graduates left the seminary with zero student debt.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>WorkingPreacher.org reached <strong>over 2 million users <\/strong>from <strong>more than 200 countries and territories<\/strong> around the world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Kenneth Rawson, current Master of Arts in Children and Youth Ministry student, was blessed to receive a full-tuition scholarship through the Jubilee Scholarship program. He wanted to share his immense gratitude with you. Here is what Kenneth shared recently:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>My name is Ken Rawson and I am one of the many people who have received the Jubilee Scholarship. It is the <strong>only<\/strong> way I am able to even consider furthering my education.<\/p>\n<p>I am married to my sweet wife and we have 4 amazing kids. I serve as the Middle School Ministry Lead at a non-denominational church in Sandusky, Ohio.<\/p>\n<p>I just want you to see how your investment is growing. I took three classes to start my seminary education. \u201cThinking Theologically Confessing Publicly\u201d was amazing. Wow. What a gift. When people ask me how seminary has been I tell them how this class increased my love and appreciation for Jesus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCulture and Emerging Generations\u201d helped me see and understand the secular age we are living in and how our culture is reacting to a world that is speeding up. In \u201cChristian Public Leader\u201d I was connected to a precious group of fellow seminarians as we discovered our strengths.<\/p>\n<p>I am <strong>loving<\/strong> all this learning! I am already sharing what I have learned with my small group leaders (the volunteers that serve in our student ministry), my co-workers, and my family. What I am learning has given richness to my teaching and has me rethinking strategy and ministry in all sorts of ways.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you, Thank you, <strong>Thank you!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ken<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; for your faithful support and partnership Because of you, Luther Seminary is able to provide faith-filled ideological education to students and learners around the world.
