Kieschnick’s Address to Churchwide

ELCA CHURCHWIDE ASSEMBLY GREETINGS From Gerald B. Kieschnick, President, The Lutheran Church -Missouri Synod

I’m actually pretty impressed — it was a very genuine and heartfelt address that didn’t go into the “you evil bleeding heretics” vitriol at all. Maybe there’s some hope for reconciliation here?

Jon tells me that Bishop Hanson addressed the LCMS Assembly. This so would NOT have happened under the late Al Berry (former president of the LCMS).

Identity

The local LCMS pastor’s wife is thinking about homeschooling 5 of her kids next year and I offered to see if I could find her some resources in the community to help her out. I gathered them and I went over there a little while ago to get out of the house for a few minutes.

I rang the doorbell and some of the kids answered. I asked if their mom was home and they ran to go get her. As they ran through the house, I heard them yelling “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! It’s the pastor’s wife! It’s the pastor’s wife!”

That just so made my day because it was so cute!!!
