Program Description

Worship coordinator, Sunday school director, church administrator, youth leader: When a congregation or para-church organization has a need for a specific type of ministry that doesn’t include preaching, it may decide to fill that need by calling a staff minister. At Martin Luther College, the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) College of Ministry, we can prepare you for staff ministry in one of the 1200+ churches of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod. We will give you the basic theological training and the practical skills you need to develop and use the unique ministry gifts God has given you. Specifically, we’ll train you to serve in youth work, evangelism, family ministry, visitation, administration, and Christian education.

If you opt for the staff ministry program, you’ll be choosing not just a profession, but a profession of faith; not just a job, but a ministry, a calling, and a way of life.

About the School

Martin Luther College Office of Continuing Education offers many online and satellite courses that provide training for early childhood directors and teachers, elementary teachers, principals, high school teachers, staff ministers, and lay workers.

Martin Luther College is owned and operated by the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Formed from an amalgamation of Dr. Martin Luther College (founded in 1884) and Northwestern College (founded in 1865), Martin Luther College opened its doors to the next generation of church workers in 1995.

Our mission is to empower every Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod educator and staff minister for every ministry stage.
