Students to receive calls, assignments for service in LCMS
invites the public to share in the excitement of聽聽Tuesday, April 24, during two services in the Chapel of St. Timothy and St. Titus on campus, 801 Seminary Place, Clayton, Mo.
Concluding students will receive their pastoral and diaconal calls, and second-year students will receive their vicarage or internship assignments.

Candidates for the pastoral ministry or diaconal ministry will receive their first calls to serve as pastors, deaconesses, chaplains and missionaries in the LCMS at 7 p.m. (CDT). Rev. Dwayne Lueck, president of the LCMS North Wisconsin District, will preach.
鈥淭his year鈥檚 candidates for pastoral and diaconal ministry are eager to become God鈥檚 ambassadors, bringing the reconciliation through Jesus to people in congregations across this country and even as a missionary overseas. In fact, ask any one of them how many days until Call Day, and you will most likely get an answer down to the hour!鈥� said Dr. Glenn Nielsen, director of Placement and director of Vicarage and Deaconess Internships. 鈥淭hey are ready to begin this noble task of the ministry of reconciliation, and Call Day will reveal just where each one of them will make God鈥檚 appeal to people whose hearts and minds so need God鈥檚 reconciliation.鈥�
