We are pleased to present our current Lindholm Scholar from Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio for 2009-2010.

Each year Holy Cross sponsors a student or students at Trinity with funds pledged to the Lindholm Scholarship Fund by our members. The Lindholm Scholarship fund was created to aid the education of Lutheran ministers. We are glad to be an active contributor to this worthy cause.

Trinity Lutheran Seminary was formed in 1978 as a consolidation of Evangelical Lutheran Theological Seminary (ALC, founded 1830) and Hamma School of Theology (LCA, founded 1845). The seminary is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools and the North Central Association. With Methodist and Roman Catholic seminaries, it is a member of the Theological Consortium of Greater Columbus.

Meet Our Trinity Lutheran Seminarian for 2009-2010...

Hello! I am Ladona Webb from Richmond, Indiana.

I am returning as a senior, last year I completed my year of internship with Christ Lutheran Church, Dallas, TX. One affirmation of internship is that ministry is about being present with one another in both the joys and sorrows of life, and trusting that God walks with us. My year as an intern granted me the privilege to minister to and with the children of God, to grow in my understanding of social ministry, and to explore areas of ministry in which I had little experience. In my continued discernment for the ministry of Word and Sacrament, I learned that proclamation is core to my life as a child of God.

Not unlike disciples of every age, my external call is through the church. It is through worship, preaching, and teaching, and sharing with others the love of Jesus Christ, that my internal call of ministry is rooted. I am enjoying the many varied and challenging aspects of personal growth through seminary life and education as I continue my journey of discernment with the Church for parish ministry. This final year at Trinity Lutheran Seminary, I look forward to receiving Approval, regional assignment, graduation, and First Call.

I am both honored and grateful to share this journey of faith with you.

May God bless us to be a blessing to others!

Ladona Webb
