Apostle Paul writes: “There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all” (1 Corinthians 12: 4-7). Within the congregation, there are diverse groups with diverse needs. New Apostolic Church offers care for all souls through Programs. Our ministers proclaim and advocate the gospel of Christ to each diverse group. Through listening, sympathizing with personal concerns and praying, our ministers provide soul care. One feels loved because someone cares. This is comforting and brings about peace and courage to carry on. Soul care is also about sharing faith and knowledge to help each person grow in faith.

Wanda Dinter, music leader of The New Apostolic Church in Sault Ste. Marie, works to make music a central part of the spiritual experience with its congregation. To that end, Wanda connected with Lois Veenhoven Guderian, based in Lake Zurich, Illinois, near Chicago, to have Lois visit the local church to educate the leaders of the group as to how best present and teach the music.

Lois has spent a lifetime devoted to children and youth in schools and teacher education. Her efforts in research, publication, and education have resulted in new models of arts education, teacher preparation, and international programs. In recent years, she has developed a unique and effective learning community approach to educator preparation that has received national attention and interest. Under Lois’ effective model of experiential learning in music education, school educators, children and youth in schools, professors of education, and pre-service higher education students work together at a school site as a community of learners.

“Nurturing the musical and creative potential of my fellow humankind continues to be the focus of my life work. I am thankful for a life so rich in human interaction under the framework of music education.”
