| The Master of Divinity program is a four-year full-time course of study primarily designed for candidates who seek to serve in the pastoral ministry of LCC. Members of other church bodies are welcome to enroll in the program, with the understanding that they will be studying Lutheran theology. A maximum of 30 credits may be taken as an Open Studies student, full time or part time, prior to entering the Master of Divinity program. Those who desire to prepare for the holy ministry in LCC must ordinarily have been active members of an LCC or partner church congregation for two years. Candidates must enjoy satisfactory health and demonstrate good character, commitment to Christian ministry, and pastoral suitability. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
