Optional Jr. High Gathering Choir

New this year, we will be offering an optional breakout session that will allow attendees to participate in a Jr. High Gathering Choir. Practices will be available during each of the 2 tracks on Wednesday, and singers will gather at 7:10 p.m. in the balcony at St. Lorenz Church to do a final run-through. See the schedule for specific information on times and the Speakers & Breakout Leaders for additional information about this breakout session.
