This will be the third summer Trinity offers this unique opportunity for high school students to engage in theological education, do service projects in the community, and share in activities for personal spiritual growth. Each participant will have an opportunity to explore their personal gifts, to observe the work of several church professionals in different vocations, and to be mentored by them. We believe that theology must be practiced in the situations of everyday life. Participants will be challenged daily to live out their convictions as they share space and resources with others. For three weeks you will live on campus together with dorm counselors and staff.
Campus life provides rich opportunities to learn together.
While many participants in the program will come from Lutheran congregations, we will seek to be culturally and denominationally diverse. We will recruit youth from varied racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and denominational backgrounds. The courses are designed to stimulate theological thought and to allow students to explore the relationship between faith and everyday life. In addition to learning about the responsibilities of a certain call, the participants will also learn about ethical questions, joys and sorrows, and challenges in particular settings. Weekly communion will be provided for nourishment along the journey.
