Our introductory course, Compass, takes participants through two different paths. First, it is a discernment process to help the participant identify their gifts, passion, and style. Through reading, journaling, and a valuable small group process, participants are encouraged to explore, articulate and hone their personal sense of call as a lay person in the church and in the community.
Second, Compass is the place to polish up writing, research, and presentation skills. If you haven't been in a classroom in a very long time, this course will help you get back into the disciplines of learning. If at all possible, take this course early in your Crossroads experience.
LINDA WISSER, MDiv '20, is a candidate for ordination in the Moravian Church. Linda was recently appointed as Interim Pastor at East Hills Moravian Church in Bethlehem. While serving as a lay leader at her home congregation in Emmaus, Linda first began taking courses at MTS in 2002. Wondering if the Crossroads program would be a better fit, she enrolled and completed that program in 2015. Encouraged by her pastor, parishioners, and family members, Linda enrolled in the MDiv program in 2015 while continuing to serve as a lay leader of the Emmaus congregation.
