Personal statement

the Synod is a privilege. I'm honored to be nominated to continue serving on the Board for Na- tional Mission. The fields are ripe for harvest throughout our land: in town, in the country, on campus, in our schools, amongst all ages and ethnicities. It is a joy to use my campus ministry, parish, and leadership experience to help shape the important work of bringing the rich words and promises of God into the lives of people both inside and outside of the church.
