2024 Good Shepherd Institute Conference: “Through the Church the Song Goes On”
Registration for the GSI Conference will open later this summer and will be available at ctsfw.edu/gsi.
The 25th annual conference of the Good Shepherd Institute (GSI) will be held November 10–12, 2024, on the campus of Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, under the theme "Through the Church the Song Goes On."
When Martin Luther made his first foray into the world of hymn writing 500 years ago and urged others to do the same, he could not have imagined the creative forces that he was unleashing. A celebration of those first Lutheran hymns and the hymnals that followed is a natural focal point for our 2024 conference.
