Opportunity to Give Back
God provided many of us with generous financial assistance during our years on the hill. He did it through individuals (often unknown) who wanted to thank him and help a future gospel servant. Please consider whether you can now be used by God in a similar way. The MLC Alumni Association supports today's students with financial aid and takes on non-budgeted campus projects to enhance and beautify the campus. Click here to make a gift today.

Reformation Art Exhibit at Mpls Institute of Art
The 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation is just around the corner. MLC is planning to use 2017 to educate and celebrate the blessings God gave his church through Martin Luther and the restored Biblical truths. The MLC Alumni Association is funding a restoration of the Wittenberg Diorama. The DMLC Class of '66 is giving the college a historical sign detailing Luther's influence on theology, church music, and Christian education. The MLC InFocus is featuring four different articles, and a series of presentations is also in the works. Alumni are encouraged to join the campus family on Saturday, January 7 as we kick off the year's activities with a visit to the Minneapolis Institute of Art's exhibit titled, " Martin Luther: Art and the Reformation."For more information or to register, visit the event website.
