The Just War Tradition:
Christian Faith and Citizenship
Mondays, August 11 - August 18
7:00pm
This course is taught by Pastor Peter Muschinske, ELCA Lutheran
pastor and U. S. Navy Chaplain on active duty, returned from deployment
in Iraq.
The class will focus on the history of Just War, particularly
from a Christian perspective. Participants will be invited to reflect
theologically and apply various criteria to determine when and if
Christians will accept--even advocate for--war as a means to peace. The
purchase of the class text, "War, Peace, and God: Rethinking the Just
War Tradition" by Prof. Gary M. Simpson is strongly recommended at $10.
Please order from LST when you enroll. Tuition is $27.00.

Small group ministry is one of the most vital opportunities for
Christian growth that any church offers its leaders. Growing Small
Groups, hosted by The Youth and Family Institute, will equip you with
the best skills and resources to insure a meaningful and enjoyable
experience in your group. Growing Groups is an education of the heart
for those who want to help others talk and learn about how an active
faith applies to real living. Growing Groups is more than a "How-to"
teachers/leaders training, because faith is passed on through trusted
personal relationships. The training is from 8:30am - 5:00pm. The cost
is $60.00 per participant (includes: training, manual, breakfast, and
lunch). Please reserve your spot no later than August 13th to assure we
have enough space and resources for everyone.
