East Region church workers’ conference
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. – After more than two and a half years’ hiatus because of COVID-19, lockdowns, and mandates, some of the pastors and deacons of the East Region were able to enjoy an in-person conference at Mount Carmel Retreat Centre in Niagara Falls. Excellent papers were presented by faculty of Concordia Lutheran Theological Seminary: Rev. Drs. Thomas Winger, John Stephenson, and Thomas Korcok. We gathered, we learned, we worshiped, we talked a lot, and enjoyed the company of one another. Sadly, not all pastors and deacons who would like to have come were able to attend.
Rev. Donald A. Schieman
