A day of encouragement

Dear Friend,

We all could use some encouragement. That’s why Martin Luther College, New Ulm, Minn., has adopted the theme of “Encouragement” for this year’s MLC Day. Join us today in this annual day-long celebration where thousands of friends of MLC and WELS across the globe encourage the work of our College of Ministry. The three pillars of MLC Day are: pray for MLC’s work of training gospel proclaimers, share messages of encouragement online, and give to support its ministry.

  • Pray for students, faculty, and staff, and for their mission of training the next generation of pastors, teachers, and staff ministers who will teach us and others about God’s love in Jesus. Pray also for those young people and second-career adults who are considering enrolling at MLC.
  • Share a message of encouragement. Record a short video with your message (printable MLC Day signs are available at mlcday.com) and share it on the MLC Day Kudoboard or post it on Facebook and Instagram using #MLCDAY2024.
  • Give to MLC. Your donation will provide tuition assistance to MLC students by helping fund MLC’s Congregational Partner Grant Program. Two generous donors are matching all donations up to $60,000 to help us reach our $120,000 goal.

MLC will be posting photos and stories and updating progress reports on its Facebook and Instagram pages. It will also have extensive Facebook Live posts of life at MLC! Have fun—and may God bless MLC to his glory!

Cordially in Christ,
Paul Prange
Administrator, WELS Ministerial Education
