MIDWEST CATHOLIC FAMILY CONFERENCE
Now in it's 9th year, The Midwest Catholic Family Conference is a unique opportunity to hear some of the country's most knowledgable speakers from both the clergy and the laity who can clearly and intelligently address contemporary Church teachings and social issues in the light of those teachings.
Our ministry has reached many thousands of people in the United States and around the world with the saving message of Christ's love and of how the Catholic Church is the instrument for learning about and sharing that love.
Paging Screens: Located in Convention Hall, Expo Hall and the High School Program in the Exhibition Hall Balcony. The Paging Screens serve as an important communication tool between the Conference and attendees. The Paging Screen is primarily for the parents of children in the Children's Program, but it is also useful to communicate last and found items, emergencies, etc. Parents are encouraged to read the Paging Screens often and go immediately to their child's designated room if his/her name and wristband ID appears on the Paging Screen.
Special Needs Program: Ministry with Persons with Disabilities will coordinate the special needs program for children. Pre-registration is required. Click here to download the Special Needs form >
