AFLC Home Missions is partnering with the South Dakota District to offer a regional ministry conference on Saturday, February 15th. This one day conference will be hosted by Living Word Free Lutheran, Sioux Falls, SD.

It is no secret that our society is changing at a faster pace than ever before. Polarization, radicalized individualism, secularism, and distraction has nourished a culture of distrust, isolation, discouragement, and spiritual confusion. There is a real sense of fragility at work in the psyche of people today. This is the door of opportunity the Church finds itself in. How do we minister effectively in this wild world? How can we be faithful without falling into isolation, paralysis, compromise, or excessive innovation?

This conference is designed to help leaders process the open doors of opportunity through the lens of our identity as Free Lutheran Christians. Our hope is also to give you tools that will sharpen your effectiveness and passion for sharing Christ. Presenters will be Pastor Micah Hjermstad, Pastor Matthew Ballmann, and Pastor Andy Coyle. Each session will have a teaching time as well as designated time for small groups to workshop ideas for greater practical understanding and application.  All pastors, leadership teams, and those interested in thinking through ministry are encouraged to attend.
