Marriage & Family Conference
April 23rd - 24th, 2021 Cole Camp, MO
This conference is for everyone: For husbands, wives, parents, children, widows, and all single people. Through the word of God, we will grow in our appreciation for God’s wonderful gift of marriage and the family and return to our homes encouraged and better equipped to lead faithful lives, regardless of the makeup of our family.
The congregations of the Cole Camp Regional Ministry & the Sedalia Circuit of The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod invite you to join them for their annual Marriage and Family Conference.
There will be no need to register for the conference this year due to the current guidelines in place. This means that Gemülichkeit, Meals, and Breakout Sessions will be omitted from this year's conference. The entire conference will also be held in the Church Sanctuary and will be streamed live at:
