2023: Alum Board of Directors

The purpose of the Louisville Seminary Alum Association is to promote community and collaboration within the Association itself and with Louisville Seminary.

The Association consists of all graduates of Louisville Seminary as well as those who have completed the equivalent of one year of academic study at Louisville Seminary.

Mission Statement

The Louisville Seminary Alum Association carries out our purpose by:

  • Strengthening the alum community and acting as a communication liaison between the Seminary and its alums and friends;
  • Building Community among alums, especially through the annual Alum Reunion other gatherings
  • Providing and encouraging financial support to LPTS;
  • Introducing prospective students to the Seminary; and
  • Recognizing outstanding members of the Association.

The Association meets once a year, typically during the Alum Reunion at the Alum Association Breakfast, where it affirms the election of new members of the Board of Directors and Officers.
