Our North Dakota district is hosting a conference for LAITY and PASTORS alike entitled "God’s Word Proclaimed: Both To Your Neighbor and also to You" on Saturday, October 12, 2013 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM (Central Time) in Mandan, ND.
Our Main Speaker will be:
Rev. Dr. Carl C. Fickenscher
Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions, Dean of Pastoral Education and Certification, and the Supervisor of SMP Program at Concordia Theological Seminary Fort Wayne
Who will be presenting on how to proclaim the word faithfully in regards to Law and Gospel, and how to hear the word faithfully as a Christian sitting in the pew.
In addition to Dr. Fickenscher, we will also have small break away sessions where we will focus on the local missions and services we are doing here in the North Dakota district, such as Project 24, Minot Recovery and more! Plan on attending! Registration is $25 for the day if registered before September 15th, and $35 after.
Group Discounts Available!

This is a great opportunity to hear what things are being done to teach the Lutheran faith in our world today, and what resources are available to you in your own congregation. Also learn about what your own local churches are doing to proclaim the Gospel here and around the world.
