Personal statement

God's people are a people of a story-the story of God's love for us throughout time. Concordia Historical Institute is the keeper and sharer of our story as God's people in the LCMS. I am firmly convinced of and committed to the keeping and sharing of our story. It has been a privilege to serve on the board to further this goal, and I will continue to do so if reelected.
