Food for Thought
"The anthems of Purcel [sic], Croft, Green, and others of a kindred spirit, are noble specimens of composition...though, perhaps, they will never prove to be effective instruments of edification in our American churches. "
Thomas Hastings 1784-1874

The Leadership Program for Musicians

LPM is taught by highly qualified teachers and tailored to local needs. Classes can be taken in whole or part, and when studies are successfully completed awards the LPM Certificate in Church Music. The program is taught locally and covers the need for liturgical education and spiritual formation as well as a full range of church music skills. Particular attention is paid to smaller church needs.

LPM is a program of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) and The Episcopal Church (ECUSA). Contributions to LPM through Joyful Gifts help provide this ministry to others.
