Blessing of Convention Participants
"God go with you!" are words often shared by your sisters-in-Christ as you prepare to attend an LWML event. How special would it be to receive a blessing read by your pastor during a worship service as you leave for the LWML Convention in Pittsburgh this June?
Blessing of Convention Participants (PDF, 161KB) is a new document written by LWML Junior Pastoral Counselor Rev. John Heckmann. You, as well as the congregation, will be uplifted to hear the words of guidance, renewal, and protection.
