I am very excited to announce that registration for Amen 2008 is officially OPEN!! Groups may now register for all three of this summer’s Amen conferences. Registration will remain open until March 1, 2008 or until each conference reaches its maximum capacity, whichever happens first.

Amen – Poconos |
Amen – St. Louis |
Amen – Irvine Concordia University – Irvine Irvine, CA July 15-18, 2008 Cost: $350/person Capacity: 500 |
For the last two years, Higher Things conferences have reached capacity weeks before Registration was scheduled to close! If you want to ensure your group’s spots at a HT conference in 2008, register as soon as you can, and register online at http://higherthings.org/conferences/registrations.html. Online registration is easy and is processed far faster than the U.S. Mail can deliver your paper forms. You can even opt to pay your deposit online using PayPal for even faster processing. To download forms and get detailed instructions for registration, visit our website at http://www.amen2008.org.
Remember, one of the reasons that Higher Things is having a conference in California is to provide an opportunity for those Lutheran youth who have had a very difficult time traveling to attend conferences in the mid-west or the east coast. So, the first 300 spots at Concordia-Irvine will be reserved for groups located from the Rocky Mountains westward, and the remaining spots will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. We recommend that those of you who would not qualify for the preferential registration register for your second choice conference and request to be placed on the waiting list for Irvine. If a spot for your group becomes available you can transfer your registration up until April 1, 2008.
Conference posters have been sent to every congregation in the LCMS. If you’d like additional copies, email conferences@higherthings.org. A downloadable PDF flier of the poster is also available at http://www.amen2008.org.
Still have some questions about the conferences? Check out the Frequently Asked Questions at our website. We look forward to seeing you at one of the three locations for the Amen 2008 conferences this summer!
In Christ, Amen.
