‘Set Apart to Serve’ Resources for Parents

Set Apart to Serve (SAS) is a Synodwide effort to build an intentional culture of church work formation and recruitment in every LCMS congregation, family, school, district and entity. Together, we pray that the Lord of the harvest will supply His church with pastors who preach and teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and commissioned church workers who will teach and share God’s Word in their full-time church work vocations.

The resources from The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) are intended for you, the influential adult, to use as you encourage our youth — and adults — to consider becoming a pastor, deaconess, Lutheran school teacher, director of Christian education, director of parish music, director of family life ministries, director of church ministries or director of outreach.

The resources, which include conversation guides, Bible studies, and journey maps, will help you talk about church work and guide young people on their journey to a church work vocation. 

God works through influential adults like pastors, parents, church workers and other laity (people like you!) to call people to church work vocations — all it takes is a few moments to begin the conversation.
