University Staff Members of Our Synod to Make
Their Talents Available to Synod
(Memorial 125)
Wuereas, The Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod is being

increasingly represented: on the faculties of colleges and univer-
sities not affiliated with our church; and

Wuereas, Such personnel represents a large source of talent
and skills, which can be effectively employed for the church at
large in varied specialized tasks; and

Wuereas, No specific program exists today which is designed
to relate such specialized resources to the growing needs of the
church; be it

Resolved, That The Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod create
@ position and provide it with adequate personnel to develop a
program designed to bring the needs of the church to the atten-
tion of its university staff members and to persuade such teaching
and administrative personnel to make their specialized talents
available to the church; and be it further
Resolved, That this new position with its personnel come under
the direction of the Student Service Commission.
