Missouri Christian Convention 2025
Missouri Christian Convention is a conference at Lake of the Ozarks designed to encourage, challenge, and connect the local christian church to the mission of Jesus! Our 2025 convention is at the Lodge of Four Seasons March 14-15. This year's theme is "The Call."
​
In Ephesians 4:1, Paul writes, "As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received." The life of a Christian is a call into the Kingdom of God. With this call, Christians are to surrender their entire being to bring God glory in everything that they do. This does not mean that everyone is called into ministry, but we are all called to serve God as part of the Body of Christ.

​
Nursery and Children
Nursery
The convention nursery provides a safe place for infants-3yrs olds to rest or roam and get all their energy out. They will be loved and cared for during each of the adult main session and workshop times. This will allow every adult an opportunity to learn and relax.
Kids Convention
Children ages 4yrs old - 5th grade will come together for a convention of their very own! This is a chance for children to make new friends and meet others from outside their church walls. Each child will have the opportunity to participate in games, crafts, worship and interactive lessons with a solid foundation of biblical teaching.
Registering your whole family for the convention automatically signs your kids up for the nursery and/or children's convention.
