I am honored to be considered to serve at my alma mater. Having served my entire 34-year career in the LCMS, I feel I have a working knowledge of our wonderful Synod. Having worked the past 16 years primarily in college counseling at the largest Lutheran school in the country, I believe I have a great deal of knowledge and experience that I could bring to the table to humbly serve in whatever capacity is asked of me. To God be the glory.

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.
