Menominee Valley Conference LAY SCHOOL for MISSION
The Lay School for Mission is a ministry of the Northern Great Lakes Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. It is a program of learning for lay persons who are seeking to deepen their knowledge and experience of the Gospel and the life and history of Christ’s Church.
The Lay School is a unique opportunity for adult continuing education. While we invite participants to enroll in the entire 5 semester program or in one semester of 4 or 5 classes, we also encourage interested students to enroll in one or two courses in any given semester.
The classes will be held on Monday evenings at Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Menominee beginning January 9th. The only cost of the school is books, and, if needed, scholarship help is available.
The following are the classes to be taught this upcoming semester:
