Title: Ordination Source: SR-SPAN67 Author: William Dallmann Publication: The Lutheran Witness, Vol. 6 No. 9 Text: Ordination In accordance with the request of the President of the English Lutheran Conference of Missouri, Mr. Carl Spannuth, candidate for the ministry, was ordained on the XIII Sunday after Trinity, in the presence of his congregation, at Sarcoxie, Mo., by Wm. Dallmann. Address, Rev. Carl Spannuth, Sarcoxie, Jasper county, Mo. Besides preaching in his congregation, Rev. Spannuth will also organize and teach a parochial school and perform missions work in the country around Sarcoxie, in Carthage, Mo., Pierce City, Mo., in Columbus Kansas, and wherever he will find an opportunity. From that it may be readily inferred that Bro. Spannuth is a missionary and as such he also needs the prayers and support of those interested in our English work; and God grant that many more become interested by this new proof of the progress of the English work. "And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us and establish thou the work of our hands upon us yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it. - Psalm iix, 17. Wm. Dallmann.
