Wisconsin Synod Piety - Stained Glass Window


Synod VP Joel Voss preached at the Reformation service at St. Paul, German Village. He could not be found after the service, because he was watching the Packers play on TV in another part of the building.

Don't worry WELSians, that will only lift him higher in the eyes of your members.

Joel was famous for never reading the books sent to the official conference book reviewer for NPH. Everyone knew it. He stood up each time and laughed as he showed the book covers to the audience.

Don't worry WELSians, that will only lift him higher in the eyes of your members.

Joel Voss reflects the overemphasis that Northwestern Prep and College put on sports, especially football and basketball. However, ever since Northwestern College left the campus at Watertown, the prep school there has concentrated on academics--exactly what one would expect a prep school to do. So when one goes in the gym at Luther Prep School, the banners marking the prep school going to state all date from the 1980s, except one or two. The latest was 1995, I recall. After that, no prep team went to state, and I saw the banners just a few weeks ago, so I'm current on my information.
