Schedule

The conference is scheduled for one day only (Oct. 20, 2006). This schedule makes the conference congenial to the schedule of laypersons and academics, and as well as pastors & priests.

The conference is co-hosted by four parishes that have constituted the Roman Catholic/ Lutheran covenant conversation in Hickory: St. Aloysius Roman Catholic Church, and the Lutheran parishes of Holy Trinity, Mt. Olive, and St. Andrew's. 

Hickory has most major motels, and excellent food services are available on and off campus. For more details see online program.

About the Conference

Over sixty distinguished theologians1 have participated in this unique series created by Dr. McDaniel, and people from all walks of life have responded, recognizing that the purpose of the Center is important for them. People are tired of the chaos in faith and morals, and want to support efforts to unite in a reaffirmation of classical Christian faith and life. Both the precision of Aquinas and the passion of Luther stemmed from their profound commitment to the Word of God. Both insisted that the world must be reconciled to Christ, not Christ to the world -- an imperative never more urgent than today.
