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.

Our Concordia universities distribute the treasure of a unique understanding of higher education.

The Reformation reshaped the purpose of instructing the mind. The mind is a gift from God. Sin has marred the mind. Satan blinds the minds of humanity from seeing the goodness of God. God desires that individuals would no longer be conformed to the ways of the world without Christ. Instead, He yearns for individuals to be renewed in the mind by the Gospel. As a ministry of the church, we can help form minds with faith in Christ and love for others.

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.
