Southeastern District

“I can do all things through him who strengthens me.”
— Philippians 4:13
Hello!
I’m honored to represent Lutheran Church Extension Fund (LCEF) and support the ministries of the Southeastern District. Here’s a little about me:
- I am a graduate of the United States Naval Academy and spent 26 years in the Marine Corps. I earned a Master of Science Degree in National Resource Strategy from the National Defense University. Before starting with LCEF in 2018, I served as a DoD contractor.
- My wife Tracy and I have three grown married children and three grandchildren.
- I am a member of St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church in Hickory, N.C., where I also serve as a Southeastern District lay deacon.
Since 1978, LCEF has walked alongside Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) congregations, schools, organizations, church workers and investors. As an LCMS partner, we share your Lutheran faith and commitment to the church—now and always.
God has richly blessed the Southeastern District, and I look forward to seeing the incredible ways He will work through His church in our district and beyond.
God’s blessings,
Kirk Hymes
