Are you in the process of discerning your call to ministry or considering the possibility of attending seminary?

If you answer “yes” to either of these questions, we invite you (and your spouse) to be our guest at Experience Nashotah, March 6-7, 2008. There is no better way to inform your decision making than by visiting Nashotah House.

Experience Nashotah is designed to give you the opportunity to engage in seminary life first-hand.  During your time with us, you will have the opportunity to:

• Worship twice daily in St. Mary’s Chapel
• Visit classes
• Spend time with current students
• Meet the Dean, faculty and staff
• Discuss personal discernment issues with faculty in a small group setting
• Schedule an official admissions interview*

*If you intend to have an official admissions interview during your visit, you will need to have submitted your portion of the Admissions Application prior to your visit. Also, to facilitate scheduling of interviews, we encourage you to plan to arrive a day earlier than the Experience Nashotah program.

Our experience with prospective students is that a visit to the campus is a critically important step in learning about Nashotah House. During your visit, there will be time for you to meet faculty, staff, and current students. Much of the time during Experience Nashotah is relaxed, informal time which should provide ample opportunity for you to discuss all the information that is critical to your planning for seminary education.

Nashotah House is a seminary of the Episcopal Church and was founded in 1842 as a mission to the American Frontier. The School prepares men and women for both ordained and lay ministry. Set in the midst of 365 wooded acres on Upper Nashotah Lake, the historic campus facilitates a renewal of mind and spirit. It is an ideal setting for exploration and discernment of your call to ministry and to seminary. Nashotah House is conveniently located just off I-94 about 35 miles west of Milwaukee and 50 miles east of Madison.

The only cost to Experience Nashotah participants is their own travel expenses. Nashotah House will provide three nights’ housing and all meals from breakfast on Thursday through breakfast, Saturday.
