Message from the President

The year 2014‐2015 at our High School campus (LCHS) opened with the major event of

the grand opening of our new facilities on September 9 2014 Dignitaries attending

included the Minister of Education the Honourable Don Morgan past presidents

Morris Anderson and Richard Hordern as well as major donors Merlis Belsher (HSrsquo53)

and Gavin Semple (HSrsquo63) and many other friends and alumni of the school The new

facilities were ready for the opening of school and there was a great spirit of celebration

as old and new friends explored and experienced a refurbished Luther College High

School (LCHS) Chapel continued to be held in the old gym now called the Merlis

Belsher Heritage Centre though the configuration was different and soon thought to be

better as students faced the stage and gathered on three sides of the central speaker

usually our new chaplain Rev David Peterson Students were excited to use all the

facilities but the Student Commons turned out to be a particularly exciting new

addition for the students of LCHS

Fund‐raising for these new facilities continued with the capital campaign ATime to

Build At the end of June 2015 over $105M had been raised towards the $135M goal

Dedicated volunteers and staff continue to work towards the goal that will ensure the

school is not burdened with an onerous debt in future years

As the finishing touches were being put on the facilities a fire occurred in the kitchen

caused by needed renovations to the duct work in the kitchen This necessitated

alternate cooking arrangements in the form of a kitchen trailer until March Mike Stobbs

and his kitchen staff endured the extra work most admirably continuing to serve

appetizing and healthy meals to our students

On January 23 2015 a parentsrsquo group at Luther College High School hosted the first

ever lsquoBlack and Gold Galarsquo meant to both raise funds and promote fellowship among

the parents and friends of Luther College Over 175 people attended and because of the

superb organization of the parents over $40000 was raised for the new furniture in the

Student Commons The parent organizers themselves enjoyed their time organizing the

gala and are committed to making this an annual event

The LCHS strategic plan at the LCHS campus continued to unfold with major work

accomplished in the area of faculty professional development determining and

enhancing the place of the IB program in the Collegersquos academic offerings and

developing the position of Athletic Director with a renewed emphasis on the sports

teams and wellness aspect of the College The Senior Leadership Team also worked

hard at determining how to maximize the use of the new facilities Security was

determined to be an issue with the new facilities but money and worktime was set aside

for the summer of 2015 to ensure this aspect of the LCHS operation was addressed

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 4

At the University campus (LCUR) having had the strategic plan ldquoMeeting the

Challenges of a 21st Century Liberal Arts Collegerdquo approved by our Board in June of

2014 work began on its first year of implementation Teams were formed around

themes like academic programming student programming student diversity capacity

building marketing recruiting and physical plant

With money received from the Ministry of Advanced Education to remove the asbestos

in our residence a plan to renovate the forty‐four year old structure was approved by

the Board The renovation is expected to be finished by Christmas 2016 and involves

new windows new heating systems new furniture new showers and a host of

aesthetic improvements like carpeting and lighting The College also engaged a

marketing firm to help develop a plan for the College who like all other liberal arts

colleges in Canada is suffering from declining enrolments The marketing plan was

approved by the Board in June and key messages as well as significant aspects of the

plan will be rolled out in the fall of 2015 In an effort to ensure that students know that

our Christian context involves being hospitable to all students gender neutral

washrooms were dedicated by our chaplain in the spring of 2015

A search for a new permanent chaplain at the LCUR campus was initiated in the spring

of 2015 After interviewing four very strong finalists the position was offered to Pastor

Sean Bell who will begin in August of 2015 His crew of dedicated peer chaplains will

help most of whom have been in place for three years to ease the transition for him

and the College With the retirement of Mary Jesse our long‐serving and incredibly

dedicated Registrar a search was initiated by Dean Greifenhagen Again after

interviewing a strong slate of finalists the position was offered to Tatum Cruise who

will begin her position in the summer of 2015

Our Board was very active also Two more Regents completed training sponsored by

the Ministry of Advanced Education joining three other Regents in becoming certified

Professional Directors An Enterprise Risk Management policy inventory and registry

were developed and approved by the end of June 2015 filling a key gap indicated by

the Ministryrsquos governance policy inventory a year earlier Human resource policies

regarding the hiring of senior management were also approved Finally our

Governance Committee initiated a study regarding what alternatives there were to

what constitutes our corporate membership For now it was determined that we are

best to stay with the current legislation wherein our membership is constituted by that

of the national convention of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) In

this regard the Board also approved a memorandum of understanding that would see

further meaningful and mutually beneficial collaboration between Luther College and

the ELCIC

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 5

The year was a busy year with many accomplishments by our hard‐working staff and

faculty This annual report gives me a chance to express my appreciation to all those

who have worked so hard for the sake of our students as well as the well‐being and

future of our College I include in this number our volunteer Board who puts in so

many hours of deliberation and continues to amaze me with their creative and strategic

thinking As well our thanks go out to all our alumni and friends who continue to

support the College and make it a living embodiment of Godrsquos work of grace among us

High School Chaplaincy

Pastor David Peterson has completed his first year of working at LCHS Much of this

year has been an orientation to the different committees including Senior Leadership

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

spiritual traditions at the School One approach has been to find common ground

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

broaden the scope to include different spiritual traditions

Message from the President

The year 2014‐2015 at our High School campus (LCHS) opened with the major event of

the grand opening of our new facilities on September 9 2014 Dignitaries attending

included the Minister of Education the Honourable Don Morgan past presidents

Morris Anderson and Richard Hordern as well as major donors Merlis Belsher (HSrsquo53)

and Gavin Semple (HSrsquo63) and many other friends and alumni of the school The new

facilities were ready for the opening of school and there was a great spirit of celebration

as old and new friends explored and experienced a refurbished Luther College High

School (LCHS) Chapel continued to be held in the old gym now called the Merlis

Belsher Heritage Centre though the configuration was different and soon thought to be

better as students faced the stage and gathered on three sides of the central speaker

usually our new chaplain Rev David Peterson Students were excited to use all the

facilities but the Student Commons turned out to be a particularly exciting new

addition for the students of LCHS

Fund‐raising for these new facilities continued with the capital campaign ATime to

Build At the end of June 2015 over $105M had been raised towards the $135M goal

Dedicated volunteers and staff continue to work towards the goal that will ensure the

school is not burdened with an onerous debt in future years

As the finishing touches were being put on the facilities a fire occurred in the kitchen

caused by needed renovations to the duct work in the kitchen This necessitated

alternate cooking arrangements in the form of a kitchen trailer until March Mike Stobbs

and his kitchen staff endured the extra work most admirably continuing to serve

appetizing and healthy meals to our students

On January 23 2015 a parentsrsquo group at Luther College High School hosted the first

ever lsquoBlack and Gold Galarsquo meant to both raise funds and promote fellowship among

the parents and friends of Luther College Over 175 people attended and because of the

superb organization of the parents over $40000 was raised for the new furniture in the

Student Commons The parent organizers themselves enjoyed their time organizing the

gala and are committed to making this an annual event

The LCHS strategic plan at the LCHS campus continued to unfold with major work

accomplished in the area of faculty professional development determining and

enhancing the place of the IB program in the Collegersquos academic offerings and

developing the position of Athletic Director with a renewed emphasis on the sports

teams and wellness aspect of the College The Senior Leadership Team also worked

hard at determining how to maximize the use of the new facilities Security was

determined to be an issue with the new facilities but money and worktime was set aside

for the summer of 2015 to ensure this aspect of the LCHS operation was addressed

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 4

At the University campus (LCUR) having had the strategic plan ldquoMeeting the

Challenges of a 21st Century Liberal Arts Collegerdquo approved by our Board in June of

2014 work began on its first year of implementation Teams were formed around

themes like academic programming student programming student diversity capacity

building marketing recruiting and physical plant

With money received from the Ministry of Advanced Education to remove the asbestos

in our residence a plan to renovate the forty‐four year old structure was approved by

the Board The renovation is expected to be finished by Christmas 2016 and involves

new windows new heating systems new furniture new showers and a host of

aesthetic improvements like carpeting and lighting The College also engaged a

marketing firm to help develop a plan for the College who like all other liberal arts

colleges in Canada is suffering from declining enrolments The marketing plan was

approved by the Board in June and key messages as well as significant aspects of the

plan will be rolled out in the fall of 2015 In an effort to ensure that students know that

our Christian context involves being hospitable to all students gender neutral

washrooms were dedicated by our chaplain in the spring of 2015

A search for a new permanent chaplain at the LCUR campus was initiated in the spring

of 2015 After interviewing four very strong finalists the position was offered to Pastor

Sean Bell who will begin in August of 2015 His crew of dedicated peer chaplains will

help most of whom have been in place for three years to ease the transition for him

and the College With the retirement of Mary Jesse our long‐serving and incredibly

dedicated Registrar a search was initiated by Dean Greifenhagen Again after

interviewing a strong slate of finalists the position was offered to Tatum Cruise who

will begin her position in the summer of 2015

Our Board was very active also Two more Regents completed training sponsored by

the Ministry of Advanced Education joining three other Regents in becoming certified

Professional Directors An Enterprise Risk Management policy inventory and registry

were developed and approved by the end of June 2015 filling a key gap indicated by

the Ministryrsquos governance policy inventory a year earlier Human resource policies

regarding the hiring of senior management were also approved Finally our

Governance Committee initiated a study regarding what alternatives there were to

what constitutes our corporate membership For now it was determined that we are

best to stay with the current legislation wherein our membership is constituted by that

of the national convention of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) In

this regard the Board also approved a memorandum of understanding that would see

further meaningful and mutually beneficial collaboration between Luther College and

the ELCIC

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 5

The year was a busy year with many accomplishments by our hard‐working staff and

faculty This annual report gives me a chance to express my appreciation to all those

who have worked so hard for the sake of our students as well as the well‐being and

future of our College I include in this number our volunteer Board who puts in so

many hours of deliberation and continues to amaze me with their creative and strategic

thinking As well our thanks go out to all our alumni and friends who continue to

support the College and make it a living embodiment of Godrsquos work of grace among us

High School Chaplaincy

Pastor David Peterson has completed his first year of working at LCHS Much of this

year has been an orientation to the different committees including Senior Leadership

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

spiritual traditions at the School One approach has been to find common ground

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

Guests have been welcome to speak in chapel and this will continue ndash hoping to

broaden the scope to include different spiritual traditions

Message from the President

The year 2014‐2015 at our High School campus (LCHS) opened with the major event of

the grand opening of our new facilities on September 9 2014 Dignitaries attending

included the Minister of Education the Honourable Don Morgan past presidents

Morris Anderson and Richard Hordern as well as major donors Merlis Belsher (HSrsquo53)

and Gavin Semple (HSrsquo63) and many other friends and alumni of the school The new

facilities were ready for the opening of school and there was a great spirit of celebration

as old and new friends explored and experienced a refurbished Luther College High

School (LCHS) Chapel continued to be held in the old gym now called the Merlis

Belsher Heritage Centre though the configuration was different and soon thought to be

better as students faced the stage and gathered on three sides of the central speaker

usually our new chaplain Rev David Peterson Students were excited to use all the

facilities but the Student Commons turned out to be a particularly exciting new

addition for the students of LCHS

Fund‐raising for these new facilities continued with the capital campaign ATime to

Build At the end of June 2015 over $105M had been raised towards the $135M goal

Dedicated volunteers and staff continue to work towards the goal that will ensure the

school is not burdened with an onerous debt in future years

As the finishing touches were being put on the facilities a fire occurred in the kitchen

caused by needed renovations to the duct work in the kitchen This necessitated

alternate cooking arrangements in the form of a kitchen trailer until March Mike Stobbs

and his kitchen staff endured the extra work most admirably continuing to serve

appetizing and healthy meals to our students

On January 23 2015 a parentsrsquo group at Luther College High School hosted the first

ever lsquoBlack and Gold Galarsquo meant to both raise funds and promote fellowship among

the parents and friends of Luther College Over 175 people attended and because of the

superb organization of the parents over $40000 was raised for the new furniture in the

Student Commons The parent organizers themselves enjoyed their time organizing the

gala and are committed to making this an annual event

The LCHS strategic plan at the LCHS campus continued to unfold with major work

accomplished in the area of faculty professional development determining and

enhancing the place of the IB program in the Collegersquos academic offerings and

developing the position of Athletic Director with a renewed emphasis on the sports

teams and wellness aspect of the College The Senior Leadership Team also worked

hard at determining how to maximize the use of the new facilities Security was

determined to be an issue with the new facilities but money and worktime was set aside

for the summer of 2015 to ensure this aspect of the LCHS operation was addressed

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 4

At the University campus (LCUR) having had the strategic plan ldquoMeeting the

Challenges of a 21st Century Liberal Arts Collegerdquo approved by our Board in June of

2014 work began on its first year of implementation Teams were formed around

themes like academic programming student programming student diversity capacity

building marketing recruiting and physical plant

With money received from the Ministry of Advanced Education to remove the asbestos

in our residence a plan to renovate the forty‐four year old structure was approved by

the Board The renovation is expected to be finished by Christmas 2016 and involves

new windows new heating systems new furniture new showers and a host of

aesthetic improvements like carpeting and lighting The College also engaged a

marketing firm to help develop a plan for the College who like all other liberal arts

colleges in Canada is suffering from declining enrolments The marketing plan was

approved by the Board in June and key messages as well as significant aspects of the

plan will be rolled out in the fall of 2015 In an effort to ensure that students know that

our Christian context involves being hospitable to all students gender neutral

washrooms were dedicated by our chaplain in the spring of 2015

A search for a new permanent chaplain at the LCUR campus was initiated in the spring

of 2015 After interviewing four very strong finalists the position was offered to Pastor

Sean Bell who will begin in August of 2015 His crew of dedicated peer chaplains will

help most of whom have been in place for three years to ease the transition for him

and the College With the retirement of Mary Jesse our long‐serving and incredibly

dedicated Registrar a search was initiated by Dean Greifenhagen Again after

interviewing a strong slate of finalists the position was offered to Tatum Cruise who

will begin her position in the summer of 2015

Our Board was very active also Two more Regents completed training sponsored by

the Ministry of Advanced Education joining three other Regents in becoming certified

Professional Directors An Enterprise Risk Management policy inventory and registry

were developed and approved by the end of June 2015 filling a key gap indicated by

the Ministryrsquos governance policy inventory a year earlier Human resource policies

regarding the hiring of senior management were also approved Finally our

Governance Committee initiated a study regarding what alternatives there were to

what constitutes our corporate membership For now it was determined that we are

best to stay with the current legislation wherein our membership is constituted by that

of the national convention of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) In

this regard the Board also approved a memorandum of understanding that would see

further meaningful and mutually beneficial collaboration between Luther College and

the ELCIC

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 5

The year was a busy year with many accomplishments by our hard‐working staff and

faculty This annual report gives me a chance to express my appreciation to all those

who have worked so hard for the sake of our students as well as the well‐being and

future of our College I include in this number our volunteer Board who puts in so

many hours of deliberation and continues to amaze me with their creative and strategic

thinking As well our thanks go out to all our alumni and friends who continue to

support the College and make it a living embodiment of Godrsquos work of grace among us

Blessings to all who read this

High School Chaplaincy

Pastor David Peterson has completed his first year of working at LCHS Much of this

year has been an orientation to the different committees including Senior Leadership

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

At the University campus (LCUR) having had the strategic plan ldquoMeeting the

Challenges of a 21st Century Liberal Arts Collegerdquo approved by our Board in June of

2014 work began on its first year of implementation Teams were formed around

themes like academic programming student programming student diversity capacity

building marketing recruiting and physical plant

With money received from the Ministry of Advanced Education to remove the asbestos

in our residence a plan to renovate the forty‐four year old structure was approved by

the Board The renovation is expected to be finished by Christmas 2016 and involves

new windows new heating systems new furniture new showers and a host of

aesthetic improvements like carpeting and lighting The College also engaged a

marketing firm to help develop a plan for the College who like all other liberal arts

colleges in Canada is suffering from declining enrolments The marketing plan was

approved by the Board in June and key messages as well as significant aspects of the

plan will be rolled out in the fall of 2015 In an effort to ensure that students know that

our Christian context involves being hospitable to all students gender neutral

washrooms were dedicated by our chaplain in the spring of 2015

A search for a new permanent chaplain at the LCUR campus was initiated in the spring

of 2015 After interviewing four very strong finalists the position was offered to Pastor

Sean Bell who will begin in August of 2015 His crew of dedicated peer chaplains will

help most of whom have been in place for three years to ease the transition for him

and the College With the retirement of Mary Jesse our long‐serving and incredibly

dedicated Registrar a search was initiated by Dean Greifenhagen Again after

interviewing a strong slate of finalists the position was offered to Tatum Cruise who

will begin her position in the summer of 2015

Our Board was very active also Two more Regents completed training sponsored by

the Ministry of Advanced Education joining three other Regents in becoming certified

Professional Directors An Enterprise Risk Management policy inventory and registry

were developed and approved by the end of June 2015 filling a key gap indicated by

the Ministryrsquos governance policy inventory a year earlier Human resource policies

regarding the hiring of senior management were also approved Finally our

Governance Committee initiated a study regarding what alternatives there were to

what constitutes our corporate membership For now it was determined that we are

best to stay with the current legislation wherein our membership is constituted by that

of the national convention of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) In

this regard the Board also approved a memorandum of understanding that would see

further meaningful and mutually beneficial collaboration between Luther College and

the ELCIC

Luther College Regina Annual Report 2014‐2015 5

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

broaden the scope to include different spiritual traditions

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

broaden the scope to include different spiritual traditions

High School Chaplaincy

Pastor David Peterson has completed his first year of working at LCHS Much of this

year has been an orientation to the different committees including Senior Leadership

Academic and Advising and the Board Pastor David has been grateful to Pastor Larry

Fry for his good advice and direction which has helped the transition immensely

Pastor David has participated in many of the school events throughout the year

including information nights and student‐focused activities The chaplain regularly

connects with the Administration to keep abreast of events and concerns

Much of this yearrsquos energy has been spent in his first year of solo teaching This

involved familiarizing himself with the existing Christian Ethics 30 (CETH 30) material

and resources and adapting them The course focused on several themes including a

basic understanding of ethics Jesusrsquo ethics as portrayed in his parables and actions as

well as societal ethical issues such as justice This coming year will include designing a

specially tailored CETH 30 course that will accompany the upcoming El Salvador trip in

early 2016 This course will focus on issues such as poverty and wealth and more

internationally relevant concerns such as fair trade economies

The chaplain has on several occasions supported Pro‐D days with short reflections and

meditations In addition to prayers and scripture provided at ceremonial occasions (eg

Candlelight Service) worship opportunities were made available to staff and faculty

during Advent and Lent with early Friday morning communion The chaplain has

focused on an inclusive form of Chapel worship to support the many beliefs and

through a focus on the Golden Rule mutual respect justice and community building

broaden the scope to include different spiritual traditions
