Our Students Speak

Meet Matthew
Master of Divinity Student

“It is a special experience to have actual family here, but at LTSS it is hard to tell where your biological family ends and your family in Christ begins.”

Meet Vernon
Recent Graduate, Master of Divinity

“My favorite memory during my time at LTSS was serving LR and Bethlehem Lutheran Church as vicar. I was blessed in many ways while serving as vicar, and my curiosity of parish and campus ministry was fully affirmed during that time. I built lasting relationships with members of the LR and Hickory communities.”

Meet Ethan and Cassandra
Master of Divinity Students

“”We learn a lot from each other because we approach things from different perspectives. Being in seminary together has been a great gift to both of us.”
