Thanksgiving

A blessed Thanksgiving! 

The entire Office of Admissions has a great deal for which we are thankful.  Each of us will be spending the next few days with family and friends near and far.  We are blessed to serve here at Concordia Seminary where the focus is on forming men and women for ministry.  We are thankful for the relationships we have with all who inquire and apply for admission.  Each member of our staff, full-time and student workers, is where we are today because God continues to guide and bless His people and their gifts for use in service.

Veteran’s Day Thank You

Thank you!  Thank you to all Veterans who have served us and our country.  A special “thanks” to all of our current and prospective students who are veterans.  We also remember those who died while serving.  Today is Veteran’s Day.  Today is set aside to remember and thank you for your service.  If you’ve never quite known a way to be involved or to show your gratitude, consider reading more about the Wounded Warrior Project http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org/ and The Missions Continues http://missioncontinues.org/.

A Day of Thanksgiving – Passing Greek!

Thank you for your prayers!  The Greek students celebrated passing their class by doing what has become known as “The Fountain Jump,” a tradition that goes back to sometime in the early 2000’s.  We celebrate with the students of Dr. Voelz and Prof. Sell, the professors who guided these men through this class.  Thanks, professors!  Thanks as well to the tutors and fellow students who supported them along the way.
