13 Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for his name alone is exalted;
his majesty is above earth and heaven.
14 He has raised up a horn for his people,
praise for all his saints,
for the people of Israel who are near to him. Praise the Lord!

The Convention began with a welcome dinner and opening worship at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Fremont, CA. The food was delicious, the fellowship time was uplifting, and the time of worship was amazing! To God be the glory!
Friday at the District Convention brought the re-election of District President Michael Lange...
...and the election of Rev. Mitchell Gowen (Our Savior, Aiea) as the First Vice President. He replaces Rev. Dr. Tom Zelt (Prince of Peace, Fremont) who served 13 years as First Vice President.
The first day of Convention business had time of recognition for the partnership with the Pacific Southwest District and Northwest District, updates on Missions, Schools, and LCEF, and encouraging words from leaders around the District. Emeritus Presidents Rev. Dr. Robert Newton and Rev. Dr. Walter Tietjen also greeted the Convention.
On the final day of the District Convention, Texas District President Rev. Dr. Michael Newman took the stage to share an inspiring message on our LCMS DNA of People, Multiplication, Truth, Adaptability, and Self-Sacrifice. Proceedings concluded with a closing worship and installation of the elected members.
If you’d like to see videos of the devotions, keynote speakers and other conference happenings, you can find them on the CNH LCMS district Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/CNHDistrictLCMS.
