Midwinter Primary Registration Deadline Next Week

CHICAGO, IL (December 7, 2012) – The deadline for primary registration for the 2012 Midwinter Conference of the Evangelical Covenant Church is next Wednesday.

The conference will be held January 30 to February 3 at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare. The event will continue a six-year focus on the six Covenant Affirmations. This year it is “Living Our Affirmations: The Church as a Fellowship of Believers.”

In response to feedback offered by past attendees, the conference has been largely revamped to enable more peer learning experiences, roundtable discussions, and more interaction during morning worship services.

The deadline for making hotel reservations is January 4. Discounted rates will be available until then or until the reserved block of rooms is filled, whichever comes first.
