2022 Multi Asian Gathering
2022-05-04 - 2022-05-05 | United States
The Multi Asian Gathering is a mission movement of Asian leaders (clergy and laity) to celebrate our unity and uniqueness in mission and ministry in The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS).
The purpose of the Multi Asian Gathering is to bring together Asian leaders from diverse Asian backgrounds, ethnicities and cultures in order to address common mission and ministry topics we face such as next-generation ministry, leadership development, theological education, church planting, discipleship, colloquy programs and cross-cultural missions. We desire to network and form meaningful relationships with all cultures and expand our interaction with LCMS leaders and entities.
Anyone who is engaged in or is interested in Asian mission and ministry is welcome to register for the Multi Asian Gathering. There is no additional cost for the Multi Asian Gathering, but participants should register for the Multiethnic Symposium, which includes a $50 registration fee.

Give STL Day
2022-05-05
Support the Seminary’s vital mission on Give STL Day, May 5, 2022!
This special day of giving is one of three of the Seminary’s annual giving days. Give STL Day is an online giving event organized by the St. Louis Community Foundation for the benefit of nonprofits headquartered in the metropolitan area.
With your support, our graduates go out from here to the four corners of the world to shine the light of the Gospel. To help meet the needs of our students, our goal this year is $25,000. We thank you in advance for your partnership in this special campaign and for making the Seminary’s mission possible!
Early giving for Give STL Day opens April 5. Thanks to a matching gift from a generous benefactor, gifts will be doubled dollar for dollar up to the first $12,000 raised. Your gift will go twice as far in support of the Seminary’s mission to prepare our church’s future ministry leaders. Thank you!
