Description

“If God has placed an immigrant group in your community, we have the opportunity to reach out and share the lovely gifts that God has given us,” said Rev Jeff Thormodson, the executive director of the Lutheran Society of Missiology. “The Ethnic Immigrant Institute of Theology raises up leaders who speak Congolese, Aramaic, Telugu. It’s a wonderful opportunity to make disciples of all nations.” Learn more about how the Lord is raising up leaders in his church through Concordia Seminary, St. Louis!
