Fellowships<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Student Interfaith Fellows assist the Lutheran Center in working to deepen campus understanding of the role that religious identity plays in many people\u2019s lives and of the importance of interfaith (including non-religious) education and cooperation on campus and beyond. Fellows plan interfaith events for the campus community, deliver chapel talks and serve on the Lutheran Center Steering Committee, among other duties.

Conference on Worship, Theology, and the Arts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Conference on Worship, Theology and the Arts (CWTA)<\/a> offers professional development, spiritual nourishment and networking opportunities for people engaged in congregational ministry. Pastors, church musicians, artists and lay leaders from many denominations and congregations of varying sizes participate in the conference, which is hosted at St. Olaf. The conference offers ideas and practices that participants can readily incorporate into worship in their own congregations.<\/p>\n

Deanna Thompson \u201889, Anthony Bateza and Anton Armstrong \u201878.<\/span><\/p>\n
