ABOUT THE CONFERENCE/SPONSOR

The LCMS Office of International Mission recruits, trains, sends and cares for our missionaries, human care workers and international educators. Find out more at http://lcms.org.

In the Great Commission, Jesus instructs His disciples to “go therefore and make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28:19). But we don’t have to travel around the world to find people who need to hear the Gospel. God’s mission is all around us, and we have many opportunities to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with the neighbors He has placed in our communities.

In this effort, LCMS National Mission’s goal is to provide support, programs and resources to serve LCMS congregations and schools, partner with LCMS districts, and ultimately make disciples for life. Find out more at http://lcms.org.
