Church Growth Director Needed for Youth, Adult Discipleship
Rev. Dave Kehl, administrator of WELS Commission on Adult Discipleship, has accepted a call to serve as the executive director of ministry advancement for Atonement, Milwaukee, Wis. As of Jan. 1, 2010, Kehl will lead the design, development, and implementation of Atonement's overall gospel ministry so that Atonement can seize its opportunities as a multicultural congregation in an urban setting. [GJ - Y'all pray for Atonement. Isn't that where Corky repudiated the Church Growth Movement in 1992?]
Kehl says, "This position gives me a unique opportunity to return full time to grassroots ministry in a local congregation and to freshly apply the resources and insights I have gained by serving in WELS Parish Services through my work with WELS Adult Discipleship."
Kehl declined a call from the Conference of Presidents (COP) to serve as director of Youth and Adult Discipleship in the new Congregation and Ministry Support Group, formerly the Board for Parish Services. During its October meeting, the COP acted on a synod convention resolution calling for responsibility for Parish Services to move from its board to the COP.
As a result, the COP reconfigured Parish Services, including changing its name to the Congregation and Ministry Support Group and issuing new calls to some staff, but eliminating the positions of the two pastor-trained men within Parish Assistance.

GJ - I cannot find the Airport link on the WELS website anymore. Dave Kehl participated in that huge multi-site meeting to promote Church Growth in WELS. Somewhere that meeting is posted on this blog, but even I cannot find it at the moment.
Anonymous found the link to the Airport post.
Mark Goeglein has left Mary Lou College. According to my source, he is another Shrinker.

Who is Mark Goeglein? There's no one with that name at Mary Lou College.
I think I once played softball with a Goeglein, he was not on the faculty and/or staff at MLC though. I'd fire that source.

Mark Goeglein taught Spanish at MLC, but took a call to be involved in the Hispanic Seminary program. Mark has not served at MLC for 5 years now... so I wouldn't classify this as breaking news.
What objective evidence can your "source" produce that Mark is a Shrinker? "In the testimony of 2 or 3 witnesses..."
Goeglein was at MLC 5 years ago. Since then he has been doing PSI kind of stuff in Florida.
Educate me on PSI? Seems like everybody who is supposed to be preaching and teaching THE Word in WELS, is doing all kinds of other stuff!

Pastoral Studies Institute...
It is a seminary program for non-English speaking students. Hand tailored Hebrew/Greek meant mostly for Hispanic students.
It is teaching.
