Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Have you registered for District Conference yet? Your packet contains all the information that you will need to register you and your family for our District Conference that is being held at Lake Williamson Christian Center in Carlinville, Illinois, November 4-6. Along with our host church, Hurricane Creek Church of the Brethren, we invite you to experience this district-wide event in a setting that offers new possibilities for family activities such as a movie night, bonfire and hayrack ride, swimming, as well as buffet style meals, a love feast, inspirational worship, insight sessions, and new and old business.

In your packet you will find forms for adult, nursery, children, and junior high registration, maps, and activity guides. All lodging is on-site. The price per person includes lodging, 4 meals (Saturday and Sunday morning), and the use of the activity center.

Registration and information for youth will be sent in a separate mailing from the district youth advisors. Because the fees are significantly higher for youth this year, the Program and Arrangements Committee is subsidizing the registration fee in the amount of $70.00 for each youth who attends. Contributions to help cover these costs may be made to the district. If you wish to donate to this effort, please indicate on your registration form the additional amount you are contributing along with the regular fee.

We need all registrations by Sept. 30, 2011. Please remember that if you have sent in your registration along with your deposit that the balance is due by Sept. 30, 2011. By registering and paying now, you will avoid paying a $10 late fee after Sept. 30th. There are still rooms available, but we do have a limited number, so please register as soon as possible.

Start making plans today to experience District Conference in a new place and in a different way!

In Christ’s peace,

Kevin Kessler

District Executive for the Program and Arrangements Committee
