Orientation continued yesterday with check-in, chapel, fellowship and plenty of opportunities for new students to connect with their mentors and classmates. Here are a few highlights as our community prepares for the new academic year together.

We are so proud of our CHS and EIIT Program students and mentors! 

During Orientation yesterday, these future church workers received their vicarage and internship certificates — a significant step in their formation for ministry.

Midway through Orientation week, campus is buzzing with activity — directory photos, ID cards, campus tours, workshops, meet and greets, chapel services and more!


Rev. Thomas Boeck (pictured left), pastor of Peace
Rev. Thomas Boeck (pictured left), pastor of Peace Lutheran Church in Conway, Ark., is back on campus during Orientation Week — but this time, not as a student, but as a mentor. 

A 2014 graduate of the Specific Ministry Pastor (SMP) Program — followed by the SMP to General Pastor Certification (GPC) track — Boeck knows firsthand the journey of pastoral formation in The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS).

Now he has come full circle, serving as a mentor for new SMP student Jason Hancock. What once began as his own path to ministry has now become an opportunity to guide the future generation.
The SMP Program is a four-year state of the art distance education program that prepares men for specific pastoral ministries in the LCMS. Learn more at csl.edu.
