You: Knighted for Ministry

The mission of Martin Luther College is to train men and women to meet the public ministry needs of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod.

Pathways into Ministry

Lent Vespers Service at MLC

On Tuesday, March 31, at 7:30 pm, the Martin Luther College Chorale, Mannerchor, and Women’s Choir will present The Seven Last Words of Christ by Richard Burchard. Join us in the MLC Chapel of the Christ for this powerful reflection on our Lord’s passion.

National Handbell Concert on April 12

You are invited to “Christ for Us,” the culminating concert of the WELS National Handbell Festival at Martin Luther College. More than 225 ringers – from MLC and 28 churches in five states – will present beautiful arrangements of sacred music, including Bettcher’s “How Deep the Father’s Love for Us,” Behnke’s “Awake, My Heart, with Gladness,” and Raney’s “Precious Lord, Take My Hand.” Plan to attend the concert in the MLC gymnasium on Sunday, April 12, at 2:00 pm.

Forum Presents The BFG

May 2, 2026 – 3 & 7 pm

David Wood’s masterful adaptation celebrates the beauty of imaginative play while encouraging children to bravely face their fears—even bone-crunching giants—with the aid of unexpected friends. We hope you come and join us for a glumptiously glummy good time!

Tickets ($5 for all attendees) for our community performances will be sold at the door only, beginning 30 minutes before each show time. We accept cash, check, and credit card.

Pursuing Excellence Under the Cross

Pursuing Excellence Under the Cross is our long-range strategic plan for preparing the next generation of called workers for your congregation through your WELS College of Ministry. You can be a catalyst to help realize a generational vision for our future called workers.

Learn more about our strategic plan

“I was really impressed with the 10 young adults from MLC who helped with hurricane cleanup in Panama City. They represented their Savior and their school very well. All of them were self-starters, and every one worked hard . . . not a slacker in the bunch. They were polite and attentive. These future teachers and pastors give me great hope for the future!”

Pastor John Huebner

“DMLC and now MLC will always hold a special place in our hearts. We have seen firsthand many blessings for our families and ministries, and join others in thanksgiving for this special school.”

Connie Scharf

“Martin Luther College is a special place for students to learn how best to serve the Lord with their gifts as public ministers of the gospel.”

MLC Day Donor

“This institution is blessed with faculty and staff members who are exceptionally committed to the mission of preparing students for ministry, who are exemplary in their care for and involvement with students, and who are gracious in their relationships with colleagues.”

The Higher Learning Commissionof the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools

“I thank God for the privilege of sitting at the feet of Christian teachers and professors who molded my life so to speak in God’s ways.”

Carol Gronholz

“I know the Lord is smiling on MLC for the work being done to train those who will teach God’s Word to the world. There is no work more important.”

Jack Ulrich

“Reflecting on the quality of education that I received at MLC and the quality of the professors that I had throughout the program, I don’t think I could have found that care and attention anywhere else.”

Gretchen HintzMS Ed 2015, Leadership Emphasis

“I love the fact that everyone is so friendly and genuine at MLC. It amazes me how everyone smiles and says hi even if you’ve only chatted once. The unity of the student body is very apparent to me, and the faith that unifies them is incredible.”
