Prayerfully Consider Visit Spring 2025
Welcome, Dear Friend in Christ!
Prayerfully Consider is a triannual event designed to give future pastors and deaconesses a first-
hand look at Concordia Theological Seminary. During this free weekend, you will attend classes, talk
with current students, meet the faculty, spend time with your Admission counselor, and worship in
Kramer Chapel. You also hear from CTSFW personnel who are on hand to make your transition to
seminary life easier. You will learn about financial aid, housing, and the Food and Clothing Co-op.
Additionally, there is a tour of our campus and a tour of the city of Fort Wayne in order to familiarize
yourself with the campus and surrounding area. You will meet fellow brothers and sisters who are
contemplating these vocations, just as you are.
Prayerfully Consider affords a vivid picture of what life as a CTSFW student preparing for the
diaconal or pastoral ministry looks like. It is a time to have questions answered and to find
encouragement from those who have already taken a step forward toward the Seminary. We invite
you to become a part of this informative and impactful weekend.
May the Lord bless you and keep you as you prayerfully consider the pastoral ministry and diaconal
service!
Yours in Christ,
The Admission Staff
