LCMS Pastoral Formation Committee Listening Sessions — Great Lakes Region
The Pastoral Formation Committee (PFC) is excited to be hosting Listening Sessions in The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) Great Lakes Region on Nov. 14 and 15.
Our hope is to engage in a fruitful discussion about how the LCMS is forming faithful pastors to meet the current and future demands of the holy ministry.
The panel will include the two seminary presidents — the Rev. Dr. Thomas Egger (St. Louis) and the Rev. Dr. Jon Bruss (Fort Wayne) — along with the Rev. Dan Galchutt, LCMS chief mission officer, and the Rev. Dr. James Baneck, executive director of LCMS Pastoral Education.
We are hoping for a healthy conversation as we answer questions and share insights and information.
To that end, we are grateful to you for sharing information about the session with your congregation. District staff, pastors, commissioned workers and laity are invited to attend.
