2023 – Built on the Rock
The 13th Corpus Christi Conference
Liepaja, Latvia
24-28 July 2023
We have booked an entire hotel, which adds up to just under 200 beds! Plenty of room for all the conference attendees! Right next door to the hotel is a beautiful confessional Lutheran church, which we plan to use for the services and plenary sessions. Within walking distance of the hotel is a beautiful beach. The city is full of history as well. We will explain more in the coming months. Please pray for the board and the local working group as they work hard to make this year a success. The board will meet the local working group in January and see the venues and plan more of the details. Expect that registration will open early 2023.

Schedule
The conference will start on Monday afternoon. Registration will likely start around 2pm and the Welcome will follow afterwards. We will follow a similar timetable as last year’s schedule, which can be found here.
In addition please note that on Friday the conference will end around noon, however there will be an optional tour or activity of some kind afterwards. Its a great way to get to know people better before saying good bye. Make sure to take that in account when booking your flight.
Please remember you will need to allow for some time to get to and form Liepaja to the airport or ferry port. Riga is about a 3 hour drive from Liepaja. More information about transportation options will be put on the website soon.
