Youth in Mission 2012 program applications being taken

In the Youth in Mission (YIM) program through the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, students learn about God, themselves and the world while exploring diversity, multiculturalism, ecumenical and interfaith dialogue, and local and global issues related to wealth and poverty.

Do you know a young leader in your mission center who might benefit from this program? If so, please encourage him or her to apply for YIM’s next Serving Christ in the World, scheduled for June 16-30, 2012. Participants will engage in theological discussions, workshops, site visits, and worship at LSTC and will also travel to Mexico City and Cuernavaca, Mexico for a six-day multicultural immersion experience.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis beginning in December 2011. The final application deadline is Feb. 24, 2012. To learn more about the program, visit www.lstc.edu/yim.
