Who’s Who Candidate Profiles My Vision for the ministry of the PSW: Focus on spreading the GOOD NEW OF JESUS to all God’s Children. Tom Miller Home Congregation: St Paul’s Lutheran, Garden Grove, CA Occupation: Experience Pertinent to Position: I have written or re-written constitutions and /or by-laws for several not-for-profits, including two LCMS congregations. For dozens of my clients, I have designed or re-designed their organizational structure. I understand the needs and the requirements of the district and synod having served as a delegate for three synodical conventions. My Vision for the ministry of the PSW: Constitutions and By-laws help insure that a ministry is conducting in good order, faithful to scripture, the civil regulations and LCMS polity. Congregations should receive timely and appropriate feedback on both questions and documents submitted for review. Troy A. Norton Home Congregation: Our Savior’s First Lutheran, Granada Hills, CA Occupation: Television Production – Producer, Executive in Charge Experience Pertinent to Position: President of congregation; 2 years Elder, 2 years Chairman; L.A. Lutheran High School Board; Chairman PSWD Committee on Constitutions. My Vision for the ministry of the PSW: Having had the opportunity to work with many of our congregations over the last three years, I have seen the desire to spread the Gospel message to their communities. New ideas, such as the Transforming Churches Network, are enabling congregations to do just that. I hope to continue to work with congregations to allow them to focus their energies on evangelism rather than governance.

Who’s Who Candidate Profiles Rev. James Henkell Home Congregation: St Paul’s Lutheran, San Diego, CA Occupation: Senior Pastor Experience Pertinent to Position: 2004-2010 Chairman, Board of Regents, Lutheran High School San Diego; 1992-1993 Student Body President, Concordia University Irvine; 1991-1993 Chairman, Lutheran Youth Fellowship, Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod 1991-2012 Speaker, Synodical, District and Congregational Events(National Youth Gatherings, Beautiful Feet Missions Conference, Association of Lutheran Secondary Schools, PSW District Educators Conference, District Evangelism Executives Conference, District Education Executives Conference, Effective Ministry Conference, Concordia University and Lutheran High School Chapels and Retreats) My Vision for the ministry of the University: Concordia University Irvine exemplifies Christcentered learning and leadership. The University has an extraordinary opportunity to witness to the thousands of students and families connected to the campus(es). That Christian witness is essential in both its courses and activities. Concordia has done an exceptional job in developing relationships with the local business community. It's a model which may be applied to other professions, as we prepare Christian leaders in numerous vocations. There is also value in better engaging congregations with the ministry (on-campus) and resources (off-campus) of the University, I am proud to be an alumnus of Concordia, and would be privileged to help influence its future. Rev. Matthew Jennings Home Congregation: Good Shepherd Lutheran, Yucca Valley, CA Occupation: Pastor Experience Pertinent to Position: I am a graduate of CUI (1994) with a degree in Liberal Arts. I taught junior high school for 10 years before heading to St. Louis for seminary. I am currently involved in Youth ministry from junior high to college age kinds in my parish and circuit. My love for education and teaching hasn’t changed since becoming a pastor. It would be great to have a connection to the college from the High Desert/Inland Empire. My Vision for the ministry of the University: It would be great to see more professional church workers come out of CUI and serve our Lord as teachers, pastors and DCE’s. I believe that a quality Christian-Lutheran education is key in preparing all for the mission field, whether they become professional church workers or not.
