42nd BIENNIAL LWML CONVENTION THEME ANNOUNCED

Lutheran Women in Mission has announced the theme for the 42nd Biennial LWML Convention, to be held in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, July 8–11, 2027 — “Transformed in Christ,” based on Romans 12:2. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

The convention logo showcases how we, as children of God, are transformed by the blood of Jesus and through the guiding work of the Holy Spirit. This logo was created by Bobby Doll, one of our contracted graphic artists.

The Convention Goal Statement and Objectives, based on the LWML Mission Statement are:

Convention Goal Statement: God’s renewing Spirit transforms us to proclaim Christ, support missions, and serve Him and Him alone.

2027 Convention Objectives:

Each convention attendee will be:

•  Inspired to proclaim Christ and study God’s Word.
•  Transformed and equipped by Christ to serve Him.
•  Encouraged to support missions throughout the world.

Planning for the Oklahoma City convention is already underway. Four hosting districts — Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, and Missouri are ready to welcome attendees. For more information visit lwml.org/convention or follow us on social media.
