CUI's Online Magazine
President Krueger, accompanied by former Provost Dr. Shang Ik Moon, traveled to Japan, Korea, and China from Oct. 16-Nov. 4. The main purpose of the trip was to visit colleges and high schools with which Concordia has agreements in order to renew or initiate exchange contracts with these institutions. The president also wanted to provide support and encouragement for our sister Lutheran schools in locations where spreading the Gospel is often difficult and discouraging.
The nearly three-week trip began in Okayama, Japan. Within the first four days, President Krueger visited Notre …
Dear Friends of Concordia,
We continue to read and hear much about “globalization,” about the interconnectedness of countries, systems and markets around the world. A good portion of the news reported through our national media centers focuses on events thousands of miles away and on how those events affect our lives and the lives of people everywhere.
An earthquake in Japan and floods in Thailand affect the production of automobiles in the US. Political instability in the Middle East or unsustainable debt levels in countries of the European Union cause financial markets …

Pastor and Kick-Boxer
Robert Sundquist escaped a hardscrabble youth and earned a degree from Concordia University, becoming senior pastor of a large Lutheran congregation.
“What I love about Concordia is their interest in being genuine and making you the best,” says Sundquist. “I bring that to my own work. Every time I talk or teach, I try to be real with folks. Whether it’s in a Bible study or at the gym, people really catch on.”
Sundquist is senior pastor of Christ the King Lutheran Church in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where he serves …
