| LCMS missionaries founded Concordia Seminary in Nagercoil, India, 77 years ago. It now has five Indian faculty and 40 students. LCMS World Mission is committed to supporting the India Evangelical Lutheran Church (IELC) pastors and lay people by helping them improve their spoken English ability. The ability for national pastors and lay people to communicate in English is critical for gaining respect in Indian society, thus allowing them to be more effective in Christian ministry and outreach. You will be part of a team that helps these church workers improve their English skills. The workshop runs from June 5-18. Team members will arrive a few days early for planning and preparation. |
