LCMS National Convention


We're here in Phoenix!

Headed to the National Convention?
We’ll see you there July 18-21!

Convention is where the LCMS comes together, and there's no place we'd rather be than right in the middle of it.

Your Heat Relief Wellness Toolkit awaits

Phoenix heat is no joke, and we want you to be comfortable. We put together a free kit to help you stay cool during the Convention. Inside, you'll find SPF lip balm, electrolyte packets, mineral sunscreen, a cold pack and a cooling towel. Heat Relief Wellness Toolkits will be available at Registration. Don't leave without one!
