Your Final Issue of the Year!
 | |
Remember dropping your student off and getting your parent tour last August? Time has flown, and your students have grown!
|
Our goal for MLC ParentsPage is to provide information and guidance to all MLC parents, especially first-year parents as they send their son or daughter off to college for the first time. So we're wondering . . .
- How did we do?
- What was most helpful to you?
- What would you like to see more of?
If you have any comments or suggestions about the ParentsPage, please feel free to contact Laurie Gauger, MLC ParentsPage Writer/Editor.

Called to Serve
 | |
December 2012 graduates
|
MLC exists to prepare workers for the church, public ministers of the gospel. Our mission and purpose is perhaps never so clear as at our Call Service.
At the Call Service Saturday, May 18, dozens of graduates were assigned all over the US, including graduates from last December (pictured) and the last few years.
Eighteen of this year's grads chose to serve overseas in Russia, Antigua, Southeast Asia, and more.
Others will enroll at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary next fall to continue their pastoral ministry training.
God bless all our graduates! And God bless you, parents, for your encouragement and support!

Summer for MLC Students
 | | MLC students on immersion trip |
This summer might be just like last summer for your student - work, play, family time. But as they get older, more ministry-training opportunities will present themselves.
For instance, many junior and senior Spanish students go on an immersion trip in the summer. About 100 students participate in Daylight USA at congregations all over the country, where they plan and run VBS, lead Bible/sports camps, canvass neighborhoods, and more. Many students also assist in their home congregations.
Whatever opportunities arise, encourage your student to think of summer as prime time for additional training.
