About
A Workbook-based guide for charitable convention preparation
This independent guide helps delegates, alternates, pastors, lay leaders, congregations, and curious readers navigate official 2026 LCMS Convention source material.
The LCMS 2026 Convention Field Guide is an independent delegate research and preparation site. It is designed for careful attention to official convention documents, overtures, reports, committees, nominees, and source materials.
The current source-navigation layer is built from the LCMS 2026 Convention Workbook for the 69th Regular Convention of The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod, July 18-23, 2026, Phoenix, Arizona. The convention theme is "Christ Is Risen Indeed," with theme text from 1 Corinthians 15:20-22.
This site is an independent delegate research and preparation tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, authorized by, or officially connected to The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod or any other organization unless explicitly stated. All official convention information should be verified with official LCMS convention resources and the Convention Workbook.
