Northeastern Pennsylvania Services











Diakon's Genesis Institute for Christian Learning is northeastern Pennsylvania's premiere provider of continuing education for clergy, associates in ministry, diakonal minsters, and interested laypeople and lay leaders, such as congregation council members, youth advisors, and Christian education directors.

Using the creative input of the people it serves, The Genesis Institute seeks to identify and provide educational and experiential offerings that are progressive, while soundly based in theology and uniquely formulated to address the needs and desires for growth and learning expressed by Christian leaders and laypeople alike. While programs are developed throughout the Northeastern Pennsylvania Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, the institute's workshops and seminars are typically of interest to those from all denominations.

Diakon's Genesis Institute for Christian Learning offers a wide range of affordable learning experiences. While pericope studies remain a fundamental offering, the program has expanded educational opportunities to include topics for church musicians, council development, youth ministry themes, and others. In addition, the institute looks to you, our audience, for feedback on topics in which you would be interested.

Special discounts are available for early registration, retired rostered leaders, and seminarians.
