Six Chief Parts

Issue 67

I want to invite the members of Concordia to say thank you to all those who have agreed to serve in leadership positions at Concordia for the coming year. Show them that their willingness to give of their time and talent is much appreciated. Please keep them in your daily prayers. Their work has the opportunity to be a great blessing to our families and our community, but such good works will not go unchallenged by the world and the devil. Guard them with your prayers and support.

We had an excellent beginning to the new term with our all-boards meeting this past week. May God bless this important year in the history of Concordia Lutheran Church!

Please also keep the Indiana District of the LCMS in your prayers as we meet in Convention this coming week. Pray for Pastor Wiist and Adam Westrick as they travel and as they represent Concordia in Ft. Wayne. Thanks, Adam, for your service!
Pastor Wiist
