Lutheran assembly picks first Wittenberg delegate
Wittenberg University student Mae Helen Jackson is one of three youth delegates selected to represent the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) at the Lutheran World Federation Assembly in Stuttgart, Germany.
Jackson, class of 2012, is the first Wittenberg University student to be selected as an assembly delegate.
She will join representatives from across the globe at the assembly, which takes place every six years.
It is the Lutheran World Federation’s highest decision-making body.
Jackson’s mother is employed by the ELCA and works at the organization’s Chicago headquarters where the entire family regularly volunteers at soup kitchens and outreach activities, she said.
After graduation, she hopes to participate in a Youth Adult Global Mission trip, which will give her the opportunity to do mission work in such places as England, Africa, Mexico or Argentina.
