Nominate Candidates for Synod Leadership
Congregations have received
ballots for the nomination of the LCMS President, First Vice
President, and Vice-Presidents 2-5. These ballots must be
returned to Secretary of the LCMS, Rev. Raymond Hartwig no
later than March 10, 2010.
A sad fact is that many
congregations do not participate in the nomination process.
The Blue Ribbon Task Force on Structure is proposing that in
the future congregations be involved in actual voting, not
just nominating. For a healthy Synod congregational
involvement is really important. Start now by filling out
and sending in this nominating ballot.
Jesus First recommends the
following candidates:
President: (Nominate both)
Rev. Gerald Kieschnick
Rev. William Diekelman
First
Vice President: (Nominate both)
Rev. William Diekelman
Rev. Jeffery Schrank
2nd
– 5th
Vice Presidents: (Nominate four of the five)
Rev. Victor Belton
Rev. David Buegler
Rev. Luther Brunette
Rev. Paul Maier
Rev. Dean Nadasdy
In the near future Jesus
First will publish articles about these fine leaders, all of
whom currently serve in Synod positions.
