Minnesota Chapter Events/ActivitiesFellowship Meetings:
Approximately once every quarter, the society sponsors a breakfast or luncheon meeting featuring an address from an inspiring speaker. The meetings are intended to be a source of inspiration and a vehicle for fellowship for interested attorneys and law students. We also organize fellowship events such as picnics at a local park or gatherings at a local attorney's home at least twice a year.
Specific information and a schedule of upcoming events can be found under the "Events" tab.
Law Student Ministry:
The society is dedicated to assisting and supporting the various student chapters of the National Christian Legal Society within the various Minnesota law schools.
Christian Conciliation Ministry:
The society sponsors training for individuals who are interested in being Christian Conciliators to assist in resolving disputes within the local church between Christians. The training emphasizes the Biblical model for dispute resolution found in Matthew 18.
