Beat the January rush!

Post author By Higher Things
Post date January 2, 2008

January has historically been the busiest time for Higher Things conference registrations. Last year, the Minneapolis “For You” conference filled up before January 15. In 2006, “The Feast” was full with over 100 people on the waiting list by the first week of February.

There’s still room at all THREE locations of the 2008 “Amen” conferences, but it’s best to get your registrations in sooner rather than later! Once the registrations start coming, they come quickly.

For the first time, Higher Things is having its annual Lutheran youth conference in three locations, at campuses on both the east and west coasts of the United States and smack-dab in the middle (well, close enough anyway!). Whether your group wants to explore the historic Poconos of Pennsylvania from June 24-27 or take in the fireworks and fun in St. Louis from July 1-4 or catch a few rays at the beach and visit a reknown Lutheran college in sunny Irvine, California from July 15-18, we’ve got a conference for you!

All sorts of other information about the 2008 “Amen” conferences, and Higher Things conferences in general, is available at our website.

Still have questions? Email conferences@higherthings.org or call 1-888-HTCONF08.

In Christ,

Sandra Ostapowich
2008 “Amen” Conference Coordinator
Higher Things, Inc.

Epiphany and Pre-Lent 2008 Reflections Now Available!

Post author By Higher Things
Post date December 28, 2007

A remarkably short Epiphany season fills our ears with the glory of Christ the Savior shown forth for all nations even as He takes upon Himself our sins in the Jordan River. The Reflections for Pre-Lent draw our attention to the suffering of Jesus for our sins, and the delivery of His forgiveness in His Word, water, body and blood. Epiphanytide Reflections are by the Rev. Mark Buetow, Du Quoin, Illinois. Pre-Lent Reflections are by the Rev. Todd Jerabek, Embarass, Wisconsin. You can download the Reflections in a printable booklet format HERE.
