Commitment and Intention
The Southeastern District
of The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod (SED-LCMS) provides grants to
students preparing for professional work in the Kingdom of God. Grants are provided to help train
Kingdom workers and should be used for that purpose only. Any student receiving aid is expected
to complete the necessary courses to be commissioned/ordained in The Lutheran
Church - Missouri Synod as a professional worker. Student aid grants are awarded by the District in good
faith and with the expectation that the student will become a full-time
worker for the LCMS. Likewise,
the SED trusts that the student is applying for funds in all honesty and good
faith. Therefore, if the student
does not complete the professional training qualifying him/her to serve as a
professional worker in the LCMS, the student is encouraged to repay the total
amount of scholarships granted. I understand this
commitment and have every intention of completing the required education to
serve in GodŐs Kingdom as a professional church worker in the LCMS, and upon
completion, will accept a call for such service. Signature of Student ______________________________________
