Symposia Rooms at Hotel Fort Wayne (formerly the Marriott); Sabre Nominees Sought
Hotel Fort Wayne will be accommodating our guestroom needs once again during the Concordia
Theological Seminary's Symposia (20-24 January 2014).
Formerly the Marriott, this hotel is under new management, but still a great place. We thought it worth a little extra for a great upgrade in hotel. It’s at 305 East Washington Center Road .

The high point
of Symposium week for us Gottesdiensters is the announcement of the recipient
of our prestigious Sabre of Boldness
award, in the student commons after the symposia banquet, on Thursday, January
23rd.
The Sabre ceremony is in its nineteenth
year. The list of recipients includes
parish pastors, district presidents, bishops, some well known and some unsung
heroes of the faith, and, as of last year, a lay woman.
Nominations are invited. The award
is given “For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity on behalf of the
Holy Church of Christ while engaged in the confession of His pure Gospel in the
face of hostile forces and at the greatest personal risk.” Submit a nomination to Fr. Eckardt via e-mail.
State the name, address, and telephone number of the nominee and the
reasons why he or she is a fitting choice for Sabre Bearer. The degree of the adversity, steadfast
resistance to pressures to compromise, heedlessness of threats, and a clear
confession of faith are considered. The
slate will close on Tuesday, January 21st.
