Join us next winter in Seaside, Oregon on January 25-27, 2027, when we will welcome Assistant Professor of Homiletics from Wartburg Seminary, Rev. Dr. Samantha Gilmore. Mark your calendars and consider coming early to prepare yourself for the conference and stay later to process all that you have learned. The hotel will honor our discounted room rate for the entire week!

This workshop is for anyone who preaches on a regular basis, clergy, deacons, lay preachers, Synod Authorized Lay Ministers (SALMS), interns, etc. We welcome all of our ecumenical friends who would like join us as well. This is a great time to also connect with your fellow preachers to gain that collegiality that many do not have in their particular settings. If you have attended before, invite your friends!
