LCMS National Convention


We’ll see you in Phoenix!

Headed to Phoenix for 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!
