How does the MO Scholars Program make Lutheran Education possible for more children? Leah Sieveking (Director of Mission Advancement, LCMS Missouri District), Joshua Swartz (Director of Schools, LCMS Missouri District), and Brenda Spieler (Principal, St. John’s Lutheran Church and School, Arnold, MO) join Andy and Sarah to talk about how St. John’s Lutheran School makes a difference for families in the Arnold community, how the MO Scholars program helped more students gain a Lutheran education, how the MO Scholars program has helped students across the LCMS Missouri District in the last year, who is eligible to receive support from MO Scholars, and how simple it is for tax payers to participate in the tax credit program. Find more information on participating in the MO Scholars program at mo.lcms.org.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world.
