Concordia Publishing House- on Tour

First time for me to visit- 

Concordia Publishing House- 

our very own publisher for the 

Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod.

Thanks for the wonderful welcome

 and the gift bags were great too!

Oh yea- Love the sliding doors- 

easy to have privacy and "work time"

 and a wonderful open door policy for collaboration.

 Loved the Innovation Center.

 Great Communication strategy.

Always challenging to be

 pushing the experiment.

 Move out into the impossible. 

Live with possibilitarians.

Dr. Martin Luther-

Cleave to the Word

 Martin Luther's Morning and Evening Prayer 

on a cubicle on the tour.

Looks like a Keep the faith project to me. 

 Pages from the new

 Tree of Life Coloring book- 

coming out soon.

Visual Faith Tools- 

to help all of us- 

slow down, pay attention 

and deal with distractions.

 Thanks to Luara Lane and Holli Rolfes 

for taking time to speak with Pat Maier

 and myself about our love 

for Visual Faith materials.

The Beautiful Chapel at 

Concordia Publishing House.

 Windows in the Chapel.

 The distribution center- orders are pulled 

and filled into bins along 

the route on a conveyor belt.

Some "ancient of days" publishing methods.

We tend to forget how much

 simpler our communication 

is today and getting the Word out.

May the Lord bless all of us as we serve

 in commissioned roles 

as deployed digital missionaries.
