Does the Concordia House of Studies offer every church work program?
Initially, CHS is focusing on courses that prepare students for entrance into the seminary, and for certification as Lutheran teachers. However, the core courses are those required of all church work programs, so students who complete those courses will be well on their way to certification in other church work programs. Students will also be able to take the core CHS courses and apply them to any of the colloquy programs available from the LC-MS. If you are interested in programs such as Director of Christian Education, Director of Christian Outreach, or Deaconess, you will be able to complete a portion of your studies at CHS, but you will have to transfer to a Concordia University System school to complete your program.
