Leading with the Gospel for more than 175 years


On Feb. 6, 2025, Concordia Seminary celebrated the
On Feb. 6, 2025, Concordia Seminary celebrated the re-dedication of its renovated Chapel of the Holy Apostles, located beneath Luther Tower. Originally dedicated in 1966 as the president's reception room, the space was later re-envisioned as a chapel — a quiet place of worship, prayer and reflection.

The renovation was made possible through the generous support of Paula Hertwig Hopkins, Linda Koch, the Concordia Seminary Guild and other anonymous donors. Their contributions have ensured the chapel will continue to serve future generations. 

Hertwig Hopkins, who attended the re-dedication, is the great-granddaughter of Rev. Friedrich Pfotenhauer, an 1880 graduate who served as pastor, missionary and eventually as president of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. His legacy lives on in the chapel's stained-glass windows. 

Koch also attended, remarking, "When I think about the pastors who will find peace … in this chapel, I am grateful to help provide that space."

Concordia Seminary gratefully acknowledges all who made the restoration possible so the Chapel of the Holy Apostles may continue to bless those answering God’s call.

Halfway through summer Greek — and the momentum
Halfway through summer Greek — and the momentum is strong!

Our Summer Greek students are deep in vocabulary, parsing and translation. As they press on through this intensive course, we give thanks for their commitment and pray for continued endurance.

Cheer them on by sharing some Greek encouragement in the comments!

Χριστὸς Ἰησοῦς μεθ' ὑμῶν ἔστιν. — Christ is with you.

We are so thankful for the great turnout for the Black Ministry Family Convocation (BMFC) July 8-12, 2025, in Dallas, Texas. During the convocation, Black Clergy Caucus President Rev. Stephen Wiggins presented Concordia Seminary's Director of Enrollment Rev. Jesse Kueker with a plaque honoring the Seminary and celebrating 148 years of Black ministry in The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod.

Registration is open for the 35th annual Theological Symposium, Nicaea 1700, slated for Sept. 16-17, 2025. Join us as we explore how the Council of Nicaea has shaped Christian orthodoxy, offering a model for doctrine, discipline and relations between churches. This symposium seeks to answer questions such as: How does a Christian not only recite but also live out the Creed? How does Nicaea provide a framework for dealing with issues the church faces today? Register now and be part of the conversation at csl.edu/symposium.
