This will be a decisive and determinative meeting for the future of the
LCMS.
In the same hotel "Consensus" will hold its meeting on Wednesday
morning, "Lutheran Concerns Association" will hold its meeting on
Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning, and the "Association of
Confessional Lutherans" will hold its meeting on Thursday afternoon
through Saturday morning.
The Rev. Daniel Preus, LCMS First Vice President will speak on Wednesday
afternoon, and Dr. Dean Wenthe, President of the Concordia Seminary Fort
Wayne, will speak on Thursday afternoon. There will also be many more
speakers to expound the conservative agenda for the 2004 LCMS Convention.
Reverend Larry White will not disappoint those who come to hear him speak.
The recent "Confidential Letter" endorsing Wenthe has raised the
significance of the entire three and half day event.
