So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” – John 8:31-32

The 75th Kansas District Convention will be held June 5-6, 2025, at the Tony’s Pizza Event Center (TPEC) in Salina (800 The Midway, Salina, KS 67401). The theme of the 2025 Convention will be “Abiding in the Word” based on John 8:31-32.
The 2025 Kansas District Convention Workbook is now available online. Floor Committees met on April 5. Final Resolutions, and any other additional information, will be provided in “Today’s Business” which will be posted on the website on Thursday, May 22, 2025. In addition, an information letter from the District Office was mailed to all Convention delegates. The Convention offering is being designated to “Supporting Theological Education.” There are 15 Lutheran Schools (Elementary and High School) in the Kansas District, and the Kansas District is celebrating its 28th year of partnership with the West Africa mission in 2025. The Board of Directors has set a goal of raising $24,000 for the Convention Offering or $1500 per the 16 receiving entities to go towards the support of “Theological Education Books for our Kansas District Lutheran Schools” and “Theological Education – Books, Materials, Visiting Professors” in West Africa. Please begin to make plans of how we can support the work of these efforts together.
