EXTRAORDINARY LUTHERAN MINISTRIES

Candidacy accompaniment - elm staff and volunteers work directly with candidates for rostered ministry in the elca and elcic. Elm also develops relationships with church-wide staff, synods, and seminaries and to make resources available to candidates, candidacy committees, and synod staff to ensure respectful, effective, and meaningful engagement throughout the candidacy process. As queer seminarians graduate, they are paired with a firstcall coach which draws from wisdom and counsel of proclaim members in settled calls who have regional connections and coaching skills.
