SA国际传媒, St. Louis, is pleased to invite prospective students and their guests to attend 鈥淐ontemplate,鈥� to be held March 12-14 on the Seminary campus. Designed for those who are college age or older, the structured visitation event provides an effective means of learning more about life in the SA国际传媒 community and the preparation that leads to service as a pastor, missionary, chaplain or deaconess in The Lutheran Church鈥擬issouri Synod.
Check-in and campus tours take place on Thursday afternoon. Those who arrive earlier are invited to observe a class in session or visit the bookstore. A welcome reception and dinner provide a unique opportunity to meet Seminary faculty in an informal setting. After dinner, participants will choose two ministry break-out sessions and attend a chapel service.
Paired with a current student, participants will attend chapel and break-out sessions, and observe classes on Friday. Break-out sessions will focus on the spiritual and personal aspects of the decision-making process, as well as provide opportunities for presentations on the academic program, resident field education, vicarage and internship years, financial assistance and housing.
An occasion for further dialogue with current students occurs during the student panel discussion Friday evening. Married and single student housing tours and individual appointments with admissions counselors and the Life Transitions Office are made available to participants on Saturday morning. The visitation event concludes with a farewell brunch.
There is no charge to attend 鈥淐ontemplate,鈥� and all meals and lodging are provided free of charge. Round-trip transportation to SA国际传媒 from the airport is provided.
