ULMA General Meeting is in March at Columbus

Location:Hampton Inn, Columbus, OH
 
Presenters:ULMA
 
Contact:One of the congregations below
 
Description:The next semi-annual meeting of the United Lutheran Mission Association (ULMA) will take place on Saturday, March 20, 2010 from 7:30am to 1:00pm Eastern Time. We will be meeting in the conference room at:

Hampton Inn -- I-70/Hamilton
2093 S. Hamilton Rd.
Columbus, OH 43232
614-552-2400

The hotel is off of I-70 East using exit 107/107A (depends on the direction of your approach). Visit Hampton.com for more information and specific directions. If you plan on staying at the hotel, be sure to mention you're there for the United Lutheran Mission Association meeting. We have a block of rooms reserved for a discounted rate.

ULMA was very busy in 2009, with a new mission start in California and the calling of our second Missionary at Large. We will be hearing reports from our mission congregations. They are Sola Scriptura in Muskego, Wisconsin, Agnus Dei in Fredericksburg, Virginia, and Christ the Rock in Carlsbad, California. We anticipate visitors from congregations who are interested in supporting ULMA as well as those who wish to establish mission congregations.

Last year was a challenge with the economic turmoil from 2008 still affecting us. The Lord has seen fit to bless our humble efforts and our missions are continuing steadfast in proclaiming the Gospel. This is your chance to meet us in person and find out more about us. We will have an informal Question and Answer (Q&A) session at 11:30am where ULMA members will talk about the organization, outreach, mission plans, and anything else of interest to those in attendance. We will adjourn early in the afternoon to allow adequate time for attendees to return home.

Past visitors have commented on the benefit of attending our meetings in person. It provides the best opportunity for exchanging ideas, fellowship, and getting to know the ULMA members and pastors. However, we understand how distance and lack of resources can limit travel to our meeting sites. There are other options available. Anyone interested in participating as an observer at our next meeting and/or Q&A session should contact one of the ULMA Member Congregations by Thursday, March 18, so that we may plan accordingly. Our member congregations are:

Pilgrim Lutheran Church (217) 877-2444
Redeemer Lutheran Church (586) 294-0640

Keep an eye on our news releases and website for updates as we approach the meeting date. We look forward to seeing you at our next gathering as the United Lutheran Mission Association continues to move forward in spreading the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.
