Nominee search
Search Nominees
Search nominee names, offices, sections, congregations, district abbreviations, also-candidate notes, statements, and source page numbers.

Nominee study-aid caution
This Nominees reader is an AI-assisted, file-extracted study aid. It is not the official ballot, not an official LCMS nominee resource, and not a voting recommendation. Extraction tools can miss names, misplace candidates, omit cross-listed offices, mismatch photos, or format details incorrectly. Always verify every nominee name, office, region, board, commission, page number, and ballot detail against the official LCMS nominee publication and final convention ballot before making voting judgments.

Find nominees by office, board, commission, seminary, university, region, appendix, or index.
Search is a study aid. Confirm offices, regions, and ballot details with the official nominee publication.
