Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary

Support & Involvement > Ways to Partner > Gifts for Current Operations

The Seminary always needs gifts for current operations. Such contributions are allocated where most needed in the current budget year. They provide for scholarship aid; book purchase support for students; faculty salaries; office, classroom and campus maintenance; library and technology resources; general operating costs; security costs; etc.

A gift of $500 will purchase nearly all the textbooks one student might need in one semester of study. Gifts of any amount designated for the Bookends Fund help to defray costs of textbooks. Building a lifetime study library is crucial for students preparing for ministry.

A gift of $1,200 will cover the cost of a four-credit course such as Christian Historical and Theological Studies, in which perennial and recent theological issues are addressed through the use of well-founded theological reflection; or An Introduction to Practical Theology, which introduces students to practical theology as disciplined reflection on the church's life and ministry informed by both theological and 'secular' disciplines.

A retreat for the purpose of spiritual formation for 75 students with a speaker may be sponsored for agift of $2,500.
A gift can cover the expenses of a conference speaker ($1,500)
