Senior Coordinator of Alumni and Congregation Relations Melodie Bostic represented the Seminary Nov. 14–16 at the LCMS National Rural & Small Town Mission (RSTM) conference in Minneapolis, Minn., catching up with Seminary alumni and friends.

The theme of the conference was “Running with Endurance: Eyes Fixed on Jesus,” and the speakers and sessions focused on the blessings and challenges facing rural and small-town congregations.

Rev. Stevie Benson (’09), pictured above, was one of the many people Bostic caught up with at the conference.
