Welcome to Doxology
The Lutheran Center for Spiritual Care and Counsel
DOXOLOGY offers an innovative program of advanced study retreats to strengthen pastors for the task of faithfully shepherding the souls entrusted to their care. DOXOLOGY provides pastors with a unique study and renewal experience, rooted in the classic art of spiritual care and informed by the insights of contemporary Christian psychology.
DOXOLOGY is a Recognized Service Organization (RSO) of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. The primary purpose of this organization is to provide training, mentoring and consultation services for pastors who desire to enhance their ability to help people struggling with the ever-increasing personal, family and social complexities of contemporary life. The training environment, grounded in Holy Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions, ensures that pastors will be emotionally and spiritually refreshed and equipped as a result of their participation. The Center provides a safe environment for clergy to reflect on their own spiritual and emotional health and assists them to review and enhance their professional competencies and skills as servants of Christ and stewards of God's sacred mysteries. DOXOLOGY strengthens pastors so they can more faithfully pastor others.
DOXOLOGY gratefully acknowledges the generosity of
LCMS Office of National Mission and other
funding partners that provides a $2000 grant
for every congregation or agency
enrolling in any of our 2013 programs
