Lutheran ministers are called a "minister" or a "pastor." (The term "priest" is not used because Lutherans do not use apostolic succession.)

Do you have to attend a Lutheran seminary to become a Lutheran minister?

No you do not. The Pastor at my church was actually a Baptist Minister before he came to our church and he did not study at a Lutheran seminary. In Australia, the answer is yea. There are only two ways in which can become a Lutheran pastor: 1. Attend a Lutheran seminary 2. For an elder (or other established Lutheran parish member) to go through an alternative accredited programme externally via the Lutheran seminary, in order to serve in his home church.

Does one need an annulment because of marriage by Lutheran minister and Catholic blessing?

Roman Catholic AnswerNot sure what you're asking, if you want to know if you need an annulment from a marriage that was performed in front of a Lutheran minister, then yes, you would need an annulment if you were thinking of marrying again, but otherwise, not. If you are saying that there was a Catholic priest at the wedding with the Lutheran minister, then you are going to have to talk to a priest about this, or call the Chancery.


Do Lutherans call their minister Father?

Either is correct. In the United States, "Pastor" is more common. In heavily Lutheran countries, "Father" is the norm. It is more a distinction of local culture and ettiquite than one of doctrine. Both titles basically refer to the role of the parish clergy as spiritual caretaker. Pastor literally means "shepherd."
