Canadian Rockies Theological Conference
CANMORE, Alta. – Members of the North American Lutheran Church (NALC) and Lutheran Core in Canada are inviting interested pastors and people to a “Canadian Rockies Theological Conference,” set for April 16-19, 2012 in Canmore, Alberta. The conference theme this spring is The Orders of Creation. Presenters include Dr. Nathan Yoder and Dr. James Nestingen, the latter of whom has served as a guest presenter at Concordia Lutheran Seminary (Edmonton) in the past.
“This conference could provide a welcome chance for LCC pastors, deacons and lay leaders to spend some of their Easter season hearing presentations that address very relevant subjects for our time,” noted Lutheran Church–Canada (LCC) President Robert Bugbee. “As you may know, recent months have brought encouraging contacts between LCC and the NALC in Canada, and we appreciate the Biblical commitment of the conference organizers. To be sure, there are matters of concern among confessional Lutherans in this country that still require much study, prayer and frank discussion, but it’s a glad blessing to be able to have such discussion with those have struggled to uphold God’s holy Word. I hope that a number of our people—particularly those in the area around Canmore—will be able to attend.”
