2026 Hmong Lutheran Conference – Rebuild, Restore, Renew
What a tremendous blessing it was to gather together for the 2026 Hmong Lutheran Conference under the theme "Rebuild, Restore, and Renew."
After many years without a conference, it was a joy-filled and Spirit-led weekend as brothers and sisters in Christ traveled from Minnesota, Florida, and Wisconsin to worship, learn, fellowship, and encourage one another in God's Word. Seeing our Hmong Lutheran community reunited once again was a beautiful reminder of God's faithfulness and His continued work among His people.
We give thanks to our Lord for the opportunity to worship together through inspiring sermons, meaningful workshops, heartfelt conversations, and Christian fellowship. A special thank you to all of the pastors who shared God's Word and led workshops throughout the conference. Your faithful service and dedication to Christ's mission are greatly appreciated.
We would also like to extend our deepest gratitude to the Hmong Hope Ladies for their incredible service throughout the entire weekend. Thank you for preparing the delicious meals, snacks, and refreshments that kept everyone nourished and cared for. Your love and hospitality were a true reflection of Christ's servant heart.
One of the highlights of the conference was the election of new leaders who will serve our Hmong Lutheran ministries for the next two years. We thank God for raising up faithful servants and ask for your continued prayers as they begin their leadership roles.
