Diakonia: An Educational Opportunity for Adults
The Grand Canyon Synod Diakonia program is a means to prepare lay leaders in changing times to support the mission of the church with wisdom and understanding in accordance with our Lutheran understanding of who God is and how God works.
Diakonia is also a Faith Formation program designed to help adults develop and grow their individual faith. The program also helps students discern what God is calling them to do as members of the body of Christ.

Where Do You See God?
God is not limited to the confines of a building; God’s kindom is limitless. God is at work during this time and is visibly active, bringing forth joy and resurrection in unlikely places. For six weeks, the people of OSLC shared what we have witnessed: signs of new life and God's active presence in our world. It has been a pleasure compiling these testimonies every week. You are invited to continue to take note of all the ways God continues to be active in our world. You are all encouraged to re-visit these: Where Do You See God?
