Synod
Newsletter Debuts
A WV-WMD synod newsletter is now being published
electronically. The first issue came out in October. The
newsletter will work on a free subscription basis. What
does that mean? It costs the reader nothing, but the
reader does have to subscribe. Subscribers will receive
the newsletter by email. To subscribe, click here.
New Seminaries Web Page
The seminaries of the ELCA have launched a new joint web
page to serve as a place to request information, refer a
potential student, learn more about discernment, find out
what is happening on campus, and more. A super easy to
remember URL has been selected: ELCASeminaries.org.
Check it out.
