18th ANNUAL NATIONAL STUDENT LEADERSHIP CONVENTION
At the 2005 National Student Leadership Convention, law and pre-law students will attend workshops and activities designed to help them faithfully follow Christ in the legal profession. Students from Law Student Ministry (LSM) chapters across the country will enjoy fellowship, teaching, and encouragement as they discuss God's call and balancing their lives. Late night after-hours receptions will happen every night for students to just hang out and eat or visit or both. Scholarships are available - click here for more information.

Conference Scholarship Help for Law Students
CLICK HERE FOR SCHOLARSHIP AND FUNDRAISING DOCUMENTS
CLS’ Law Student Ministries (LSM) is raising money this summer and fall to help the law students defray the costs of attending the conference.
We are praying that fundraising will be at record levels so more students can afford to attend. Some money has already been raised, and we will have specific scholarship amounts in the fall when school begins.
To receive a scholarship, EACH student MUST register for the conference directly with LSM at (703) 642-1070 ext. 3304. ONLY LSM staff will be able to award scholarships. Students who register prior to Oct. 14 will receive their check at the conference, otherwise they will be mailed.
