The LCA Convention Planning Committee had its first meeting on 28 May. The following groups are working together to ensure that the convention is properly managed: Worship, 'Where Love Comes to Life' Thematic, Agenda Planning, Elections, Resolution Planning, Nominations and LCAQD Planning.

Convention will be held at Redeemer Lutheran College and Our Saviour Lutheran Church, Rochedale, Queensland, 29 September to 4 October 2015.

Parishes will need to nominate their delegates, via LAMP, by 31 January 2015. A comprehensive training package will be available for delegates.

The LCA and its international partners will be called to prayer between now and Convention.

Orders are still coming in, so we're extending the closing date. This won't last forever though, so don't delay. Order today! Please let your congregation members and friends know about this great offer too. Proceeds support local mission outreach events like the Longest Lutheran Lunch.
