The endowment will support the work of Lutheran Quarterly and its initiatives. Forde was active in editing and contributing to the Lutheran Quarterly for almost 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to supporting the theological journal, the endowment will fund research programs and other forthcoming books.<\/p>\n<p>The endowment committee will host a day of lectures and remembrance on Aug. 9, the anniversary of Forde&#8217;s death. It will be held at Indherred Church in Starbuck, Minn, Forde&#8217;s home church. The day&#8217;s activities will include addresses by retired bishop and Luther Seminary professor emeritus David Preus, &#8217;50, and Luther Seminary professor of systematic theology Steven Paulson, &#8217;84, a discussion of Forde&#8217;s theological legacy and a time of sharing stories. Anyone interested in participating or remembering Forde&#8217;s life and ministry is welcome to attend.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the day&#8217;s events, or to contribute to the Forde Endowment, contact Steve Paulson at <a href=\"mailto:spaulson@luthersem.edu\">spaulson@luthersem.edu<\/a>,  or 651-641-3461.
