About 90% of WELS called workers are MLC graduates!

Where will your next pastor, teacher, or staff minister come from?

The vast majority of pastors, teachers, and staff ministers at WELS churches and schools graduate from one college:

Martin Luther College!

Pastors & Missionaries Almost all WELS pastors attended Martin Luther College or its predecessor college, Northwestern College. It’s here they began their study of Greek and Hebrew.

It’s here they learned confessional Lutheran doctrine. It’s here the Holy Spirit strengthened their faith and their love for souls.

MLC students grow in faith, master their subjects, develop their talents, and gain valuable ministry experience—all in preparation to serve you, your church, and your school.

To prepare these men and women for gospel ministry, your support is essential!

Please give to the MLC Fund!

Your gifts to the MLC Fund go to work immediately, supporting vital classroom instruction, essential student services, and facility maintenance— all the critical infrastructure that supports our students on their journey to the public ministry.

2 Kinds of Gifts

Teachers PK-12 The majority of teachers at WELS schools graduated from Martin Luther College or its predecessor college, Dr. Martin Luther College.

Whether they teach at preschools, elementary schools, or high schools, it’s here they mastered the “what” and the “how” of teaching—including the importance of teaching everything in the light of God’s Holy Word.

Staff Ministers Most staff ministers graduated from Martin Luther College. It’s here they learned theology and developed the special gifts they use in family ministry, parish music and worship, evangelism, visitation, administration, and Christian education.
