Dear Friends in Christ,

As someone who is thinking about relocating to Fort Wayne, Indiana, to attend CTSFW, you

likely have many questions and concerns. We want to make your transition to CTSFW and

the Fort Wayne area easier for you and your family!

My name is Renita Nahrwold. I serve as your Relocation Coordinator. I have loved working

for the Seminary since 1999. I previously worked in the Student Services area for 17 years,

then moved to the Admission Department in 2015. I am very blessed to work for and support

the Seminary community. I love having the opportunity to work with you and assist you in

meeting your family's needs!

If you're considering purchasing or renting a house or keeping it simple in an apartment,

I can point you in the right direction. We have many people from the CTSFW or Fort Wayne

community who love to support the mission of the Church and provide their rental property

for students like you. For convenience, we have four apartment complexes close to CTSFW,

where some of our students live.

Please remember that I am here to work with you and assist you with relocating to Fort

Wayne. You may contact me at:

Relocation@ctsfw.edu

Office: (260) 452-2248

I look forward to working with you and assisting you in your transition to your new life here

at CTSFW in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

In Christ,

Renita Nahrwold

Relocation Coordinator

CHANGE OF ADDRESS (WWW.IN.GOV)

Address Change

The BMV maintains two addresses for each customer record: a residential and a mailing

address. Your driver’s license, learner’s permit, or identification card has your residential

address printed on the front of the card. Your residential address is also printed on your

vehicle registration(s), which you renew each year. Your mailing address is the location the

BMV uses to send correspondence when requested.

If you have moved recently and you hold an Indiana credential and/or vehicle registration,

you need to visit a BMV branch to amend your residential address within 30 days of the

change.

Amending your credential’s residential address, which includes the street, city, county, or

township, does not affect the expiration date of your credential or vehicle registration(s).

You cannot update your residential address using BMV online services. You must visit a

BMV branch with proof of residence when updating and renewing or amending your

credential.

Update My Residential Address

To amend your residential address, you must visit a BMV branch with two documents

proving Indiana residency. Proof of Indiana residency can include documents such as a

lease, monthly banking, credit card, mortgage statements, utility bills, or similar

documentation that is generated on digitally printed organizational letterhead. This

documentation must be dated within 60 days of your visit to the BMV. For a complete

list of acceptable documents, please visit the www.IN.gov website.

INDIANA DRIVER LICENSE

Driver’s License

The State of Indiana issues new driver’s licenses at BMV branches. All applicants for new

driver’s licenses must meet Indiana Real ID requirements. A Real ID issued by the Indiana

BMV meets federal identification requirements. The issuance of a Real ID requires an

applicant to present documents verifying identity, Social Security number, lawful status, and

Indiana residency.

Persons who are not United States citizens (persons with temporary or permanent lawful

status) are also required to have a Real ID and must present full documentation to be issued

a new credential, or to renew or amend a credential. This includes providing documents

which demonstrate identity, Social Security number (or ineligibility for a SSN), lawful

status, and Indiana residency. This documentation is not required when replacing a valid

Real ID. Please note that the BMV does not accept Matricula Consular cards for purposes of

establishing identity or residency.

Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, a Real ID-compliant driver’s license, permit, or identification card

will be required to board commercial airplanes or enter certain federal facilities unless you

present a Department of Homeland Security-approved document. Indiana residents who

have not already made application for a Real ID should do so during their next renewal.

VOTING

Register to Vote

To register to vote in Indiana, visit www.IndianaVoters.com and have a valid Indiana

Driver’s License Number or Indiana State Identification Card Number available. In addition

to registering to vote for the first time online, you can also update your voter registration

with a new address or name change online.

If you do not have a valid Indiana Driver’s License Number or Indiana State Identification

Number available, you can download and print the Indiana Voter Registration Application

(VRG-7) and register to vote by mail.

Citizens may also register to vote at the Indiana Election Division, located in the Indiana

Government Center South (302 W. Washington Street, Room E-204, Indianapolis, Indiana

46204), at your local county voter registration office, at any Bureau of Motor Vehicles

License Branch, or at any National Voter Registration Act full service agency (i.e.,

Workforce Development offices, Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA)

offices). In addition, local public libraries routinely have voter registration applications

available.

For more information on how to register to vote, information on deadlines and other

important dates, and any other election-related questions, please visit the Indiana Secretary

of State’s Voter Information Portal. You may also call the Hoosier Voter Hotline at (866) IN- 1-VOTE.

CTSFW STUDENT MOVING-IN COMMITTEE

First of all, welcome to Fort Wayne!

The moving-in committee was established to help off-campus students and their families

move in to ease the burden and stress of moving. We have a Facebook page that runs all of it

with the use of events.

About, Rules, & Tips

n The Facebook page is to be used for those moving into Fort Wayne. This committee

helps those who are new to Fort Wayne and very likely do not know anyone here.

n The unpacking of your moving truck is reduced from 4-8 hours to 60-90 minutes. Many

hands make very quick, light work. The average help is about 10-12 people.

n We have a dolly and lifting straps

n Typically, one of your family members will just need to be at the rear of the truck to

direct mover where to set boxes and furniture

n Pizza, beer, and water are appreciated, following the unpacking of your truck

n Help others move in who have helped you! Later on, you will need their help for

moving out for vicarage, in from vicarage, and out to your call. Most of these people

will become your friends for life.

If you have a Facebook profile

1. First, please email Moving@ctsfw.edu with your name, we will then be expecting your

friend request

2. Search on Facebook for Concordia Theological Seminary Moving In Committee and

friend request me so you can be added to this group.

3. When you know the address, date, and approximate time of your arrival to Fort Wayne,

message me so I can create the event and start recruiting help.

4. We realize the exact time of arrival is approximated, so please update the Facebook

event if running early or late. That will then notify all who are planning to help.

If you DO NOT have a Facebook profile

1. Email Moving@ctsfw.edu so I can add you to my list.

2. When you know the address, date, and approximate time of your arrival to Fort Wayne,

email me so I can create the event and start recruiting help.

3. We realize the exact time of arrival is approximated, so stay in touch with me by email

if running early or late. Then I can notify all who are planning to help.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me by email at Moving@ctsfw.edu.

In-Service to Christ,

Chairman of the Committee
