ort This 2013 Annual Report of Giving

recognizes and celebrates the impressive support of donors who share our commitment to quality theological education.

Thanks to your generosity, we exceeded our $1 million goal for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, and are well positioned for continued success and growth under the capable leadership of Rev. Dr. Carol E. Lytch, President of Lancaster Theological Seminary.

Private donations are the lifeline of the Seminary. Your gifts have provided scholarships, technology and physical improvements, and the critical educational support required to educate transformational leaders to serve the church now and into the future.

Here are just a few highlights from a busy and exciting year that you helped to make possible.

INNOVATIVE — INVOLVED — INCLUSIVEOver the last year, Lancaster Seminary provided more than $500,000 in scholarship financial aid, making it possible for students to follow their call to ministry.

In 1964, Lancaster Seminary was the first to require MDiv students to complete a cross-cultural seminar. Fifty years later, we remain a leader in integrating theological education with the reali-ties of life outside our campus, continuing a half-century tradition of transformative cross-cultural experiences.

Recognizing the importance of enhancing connections to the “wired world,” we completed the installation of the latest Smart Classroom wireless technology in our lecture rooms. Robust web-based infrastructure enhances our ability to continue our tradition of providing the highest quality theological education to students and the community well into the future.

We launched our new website with multimedia capabilities and debuted unique hybrid courses that combine the best of online and classroom-based education, carrying on our heritage of personal-ized, high-quality teaching now enhanced with the convenience of high-tech tools.

Ever mindful of the importance of preparing future leaders for an increasingly diverse and changing world, Lancaster Seminary’s recruitment program has increased the percentage of students of color from 13% to 36% over the last seven years.

More than 3,000 regional clergy and lay people participate annually in our continuing education / lifelong learning programs which feature some of the most renown preachers and theologians in the United States including Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Wright and Rev. Dr. James Forbes.

Lancaster Seminary’s historic campus and architecturally significant buildings require careful stew-ardship. We have begun work with the nationally known nonprofit Partners for Sacred Places on a unique campus preservation and maximization project that also will serve as a national model for seminaries.

The 1825 socieTyAt Lancaster Theological Seminary

Named for the Seminary’s founding year, The 1825 Society offers two ways to invest in our school’s future by honoring its historic past. an annual gift of $1,825 or a dona-tion of $365 a year for five years (one dollar a day) qualifies for Society membership and benefits. We thank these members whose contributions help support our mission to educate transformational leaders for church and society.

God has richly blessed this school in this past year. God has used you and your gifts to “do far more abundantly above all that we can ask or imagine.” (Ephesians 3:20)

Beyond speechless wonder, the only genuine response to all this is gratitude — a heartfelt thankfulness that makes us generous, less as a duty than as the least we can do in response to all God does for us.
