Beautiful Feet: In Your Shoes
November 2-4, 2017Concordia University in St. Paul, MN
Representing LWML, Michelle Zollinger, LWML Public Relations Director, was privileged to be among the beautiful faces and feet of approximately 185 student participants, student and adult leaders, praise brand, four plenary speakers, 19 breakout session presenters, and 16 exhibitors who were all full of eagerness, energy, enthusiasm, and joy to be mission-minded servants and disciples of Jesus. Michelle thanked Jesus for placing her feet in her shoes at the Beautiful Feet Conference so that she had the opportunity to share the mission of the LWML, which is to assist each woman in affirming her relationship with God so that she is enabled to use her gifts in ministry to all nations.
Beautiful Feet is an annual conference that is hosted by one of the Concordia Universities to share opportunities with college students for foreign and domestic missions and equip them to daily be in mission as disciples of Jesus. Beautiful Feet comes from Romans 10:15, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” This year’s conference focused on The Great Commission, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19-20).
