Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world!

The "Two Rs" - the Recruitment and Retention of church workers are the emphases of What a Way. In fact, the purpose of What a Way is to rebuild active recruitment and retention of church workers as an integrated part of the LCMS culture and lifestyle at the local congregational level.

I invite you to "click around" this Web site:

  • Visit Encourage to find ways to identify, inform and encourage future church workers.
  • Visit Explore and learn more about specific church work vocations.
  • Visit Embrace and consider how to serve well and happy in your church work vocation.
  • Visit the BLOG and engage in a robust discussion of topics related to the recruitment and retention of church workers.

Above all, I invite you to join me in following the desire of our Lord:"…
Pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest"
(Matt. 9:38).

 

In His Service,

Rev. Dr. Glen D. Thomas
