  Diaconal Ministry -
  History, Formation, and Spirituality

  
  

  This J-Term course is hosted by the Deaconess Community of the ELCA. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about the Diaconal Ministry and how much our nursing history corresponds with it. The Deaconess Community provides financial grants for a portion of the cost and participants can choose what portion of the cost they would like covered. More information can be found at https://deaconesscommunity.org/2025-j-term/

  This Course is for the whole church as it introduces participants to the historical, theological, and social contexts in which the work of diaconal ministry has been expressed through the church’s history;

  • provides a particular focus on ways in which that history continues to impact the present;
  • provides opportunity for the development of spiritual disciplines and vocational discernment;
  • meets the formation requirements for those entering the Word and Service Roster; 
  • includes pre-work.

  Course Goals:

  • To present a theological grounding for discernment.
  • To learn about the ministry of Word and Service throughout the church’s history.
  • To experience and talk about intentional community.
