Men called into the office of holy ministry

Tonight, Concordia Theological Seminary placed men into the office of holy ministry.  The following are calls to men who will be placed in the Wyoming District where I am a pastor:

KENNETH L. HUMPHREY (AR)
Long Beach, CA

TRINITY LUTHERAN CHURCH
Morrill, NE
Wyoming District

GREGORY A. SONNENSCHEIN
Casper, WY
BETHLEHEM LUTHERAN CHURCH & REDEEMER LUTHERAN CHURCH
Crawford & Harrison, NE

Wyoming District
ADAM L. SORENSON
Carmel, IN
GRACE LUTHERAN CHURCH
Gordon, NE

Wyoming District

The following will be the vicar (intern) assigned for the upcoming year:

Thomas J. Marth
Holly, MI

Christ the King Lutheran Church
Cody, WY
Wyoming District

The following will not be coming to the Wyoming District, but is the brother of one of my members:

RUSSELL D. BONINE
Powell, WY

ST. PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH
Haven, KS
Kansas District

The ironic thing about this assignment is that his brother vicared there a year ago, I believe.  Both of the Bonine brothers will be in Kansas and just a few hours apart from each other.

God’s blessings to these men and to all who receive their vicarage assignments and their first calls into the office of the holy ministry.
