Current Projects of The Auxiliary

There are a fair number of Walther Sermons that remain untranslated. Therefore, The Auxiliary is sponsoring a project to have these remaining untranslated sermons rendered into English. See the Auxiliary of CHI’s Walther Sermon Project flyer to learn more!

Concordia Historical Institute, in past years, had all the Concordia Seminary, St. Louis class composites on display in the CHI lobby. Because of space considerations, this display had to be taken down. In order to allow patrons and visitors to continue to view the class composites, the Auxiliary of Concordia Historical Institute is sponsoring a project to digitize the composites and display them on an LED display in the lobby. See the Auxiliary of CHI’s Concordia Seminary class composite project flyer to learn more!
