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.

I have long had a deep interest in pastoral formation and education that are faithful to our Lutheran Confessions. I annually support seminary education financially, and I regularly attend seminary-sponsored continuing education programs. I have observed the challenges and evolution of both seminaries and am proud of their strides to make residential pastoral formation financially accessible to our students and those of our global partner churches. I feel prepared to utilize my broad experience, ideas, and personal network by serving on the CSL Board of Regents to continue its good work and to help CSL fulfill its goals and vision.

Pause and Pray at 3:07 p.m.

At 3:07 each day, remember John 15:7 and pray for Christ's Church, the convention, our leaders, and the work of the Gospel among us.
