    The 2010 FCTE (First Call Theological Education) Fall Event will be held November 7-10 at St. Anthony Spirituality Center in Marathon Wisconsin. Mark your calendars now, and watch for information to arrive in your mailboxes during the early part of September.

    This is one component of a three-year structured program of theological education designed to assist newly-called leaders in the transition to rostered ministry that has been mandated by the ELCA.

    This year will be another exciting opportunity to hear some great presenters. Chick Lane will be our plenary speaker; and Audrey West will be here to do our Bible study. Our theme this year will focus on Stewardship.
