The Lutheran Student Center is served by Rev. John Pasche.  The Center serves the college students of Wayne State College.

In 1991, the Nebraska District, along with the Laborers for Christ, bought and constructed the present Lutheran Student Center. The Laborers for Christ enlisted many volunteer hours of the members of Grace Lutheran Church to help create a building that would provide a Campus Center where students could come relax, study, eat, and visit.

The Nebraska District provides for the building--the congregation supports the activities and ministry at Wayne State College. They are committed to the avenue this provides to the Word of God. The hope is to continue to have a strong relationship between students and the congregation, where members of the congregation can participate in the lives of the students--and the students in the life of the congregation.

The Lutheran Student Center hosts the following activities for students:

• Canoe trip on the Niobrara River in Valentine, NE
• Bible studies
• Community support
• Monthly topic night, event, or dinner
• Annual Thanksgiving meal sponsored with the Newman Club
• Midnight volleyball event for all Christian students on campus
• Finals breakfast hosted by the church

They have also sponsored servant events:

• Serving the Winnebago Reservation
• Benefiting Orphan Grain Train
• Helping to build a home in Tennessee during spring break

Over the last 12 years, nine Wayne State Students who were involved in the Lutheran Student Center have gone into church work. 

They hope to continue to touch the students at Wayne State College in a positive way that honors Jesus Christ through His Word and prayer.
