New Faithfulness in Ministry Cross Award Criteria Reflect Changes in Ministry

Posted on

Nominate an alum! Is there someone whose ministry has been particularly inspiring to you? Think of your friends, colleagues and classmates. Whose story should be shared?

In 1990 the Luther Seminary Alumni/ae Council introduced the https://www.luthersem.edu/alums/council/fimca/fim.asp [Faithfulness in Ministry Cross Award] to honor the ministries of all alumni/ae.

Since its inception, there have been many changes in congregations, communities and the very nature of ministry. In response to this, the Council will award three Faithfulness in Ministry crosses to individuals who graduated:

* Within the past 10 years
* Within 25 years
* More than 25 years ago

To nominate an individual, you can download a nomination form or use our convenient https://www.luthersem.edu/alums/council/fimca/fim_nom_form.asp [online nomination] form.
