| Pastor Ken Klaus Announces His Retirement Date
St. Louis, MO, Nov. 16, 2009 — Pastor Ken Klaus, Speaker of The Lutheran Hour®, has announced his intention to retire from the position in January 2011. Pastor Klaus has been Speaker of the flagship program for Lutheran Hour Ministries since 2002 and serves as the media spokesperson, spiritual leader, and evangelist for the organization, as well as ministry emissary with The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and Lutheran Church—Canada.
"In answer to many questions you may have: I am feeling fine, I love the International Lutheran Laymen's League and Lutheran Hour Ministries, I love the direction of the LHM Men's NetWork as a way to ignite and challenge the faith lives of men, and I have a great respect for our new executive director Bruce Wurdeman," says Pastor Klaus. "Still, I believe that January 2011 is the right time for someone else to fill the Speakership and I want to provide enough time for selecting a replacement to ensure a smooth transition."
