Set Apart To Serve: Lutheran Schools Raising Up Church Workers

How do Lutheran Schools elevate church work vocations and raise up the next generation of church workers? Alicia Levitt — Director of Academic Excellence and Interim Executive Director of The Lutheran Schools Partnership in Northeast Indiana, and Jacob Pennekamp — Head of School for Concordia Lutheran High School in Fort Wayne, Indiana, join Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve Series to talk about how they serve in Lutheran Schools, their journeys into church work, the role each of them plays in forming and recruiting youth to consider full-time church work, the dual-credit program Concordia Lutheran High School offers students “for teaching preparation from the Lutheran Christian perspective,” and the “Champions for Church Workers” program in the Partnership. Learn more about The Lutheran Schools Partnership at thelutheranschools.org and Concordia Lutheran High School at clhscadets.com.

Christ’s church will continue until He returns, and that church will continue to need church workers.

Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is an initiative of the LCMS to recruit church workers. Together, we pray for workers for the Kingdom of God and encourage children to consider church work vocations.

Here are three easy ways you can participate in SAS:

1. Pray with your children for God to provide church workers.

2. Talk to your children about becoming church workers.

3. Thank God for the people who work in your congregation.
