Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The LCMS Northern Illinois District is united in mission by Word, Wellness, and Witness. In our Lutheran Schools we build relationships with children and their families to equip disciples and open doors for children and their families who do not yet know their Savior. This is a special Educators Conference as we continue to form collaboration with Concordia University Chicago (CUC), the Lutheran Church Extension Fund (LCEF), and the Lutheran Education Association (LEA). Together, we are excited to present this conference. May it truly be a time of worship, learning, and fellowship with fellow educators and our Lord and Savior. We pray you will gain knowledge and ideas that you will take back to your classrooms and offices. May we ever grow closer to Christ!
The theme for our conference is ‘Our God is Faithful’. We reflect on Hebrews 10:23 where we read, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.”
As we worship, renew friendships, and learn during the sessions, may your day be blessed.
Serving the Master Teacher,
Lois Stewart
