Boards of Regents meet in Edmonton

EDMONTON – On February 4-5, 2020 the Boards of Regents from Concordia Lutheran Theological Seminary (CLTS), St. Catharines, and Concordia Lutheran Seminary (CLS), Edmonton, held their annual joint meeting at CLS. The two boards met together with reports given on each seminary by presidents Rev. Dr. Thomas Winger (CLTS) and Rev. Dr. Jim Gimbel (CLS).

Most of the day was spent discussing answers to previously prepared questions dealing with matters of mutual interest to both seminaries, such as current challenges facing congregations and options that our seminaries might consider in order to better prepare pastors and other church workers for service in Lutheran Church–Canada.

The two boards also met separately to conduct the business of each seminary. Members of both boards expressed appreciation for the spirit of collegiality and cooperation that exists between the two seminaries, as each carries out the important work of equipping and training future church workers as servants for Jesus’ sake.
