Harvest Call is LST’s premier showcase and training event for those brand new to the LST family as well as those who have been utilizing LST for years to share their faith and train others to do so!  The LST Benefit Dinner concludes the weekend with a gathering of 500 friends ready to celebrate and promote the advancement of God’s Kingdom through our combined efforts.

At this international conference we will equip and encourage each other through a number of different tracks:

Church Trainers/Leaders- This track equips leaders and volunteers from churches to recruit, train, and send LST teams from their congregation in the coming year.  Breakout sessions will meet the needs of those brand new to LST as well as those with experienced leadership.

Campus Trainers/Leaders - Join other campus leaders from across the nation as we equip each other to recruit, train, and send LST teams to countries around the world.  Breakout sessions will meet the needs of those brand new to LST as well as those with experienced leadership.

The LST Experience - This single-session meeting will be held twice during the weekend.  It exposes people new to LST to the multitude of ways we serve churches and campuses.  Explore all the LST ministries as well as the foundation on which all of them are built.

LST Development Council – This track is by invitation for those who have dedicated themselves to opening new doors of opportunity for the LST Ministry.  Representatives will join us from around the nation!  Those participating in this track will have plenty of time to join the other tracks as well.

National FriendSpeak Leadership Conference – Join together with other experienced FriendSpeak leaders from around the country and learn new strategies for building a more effective outreach.  Participants in this FriendSpeak event will have their own schedule, logistics, and fees.  However, it will take place at the same conference site as other Harvest Call activities. 

LST Benefit Dinner – After the conclusion of Harvest Call on Saturday, at 7:00 pm we will join 500 friends for an evening of inspiration, great food, and joyful giving.  Please DO NOT use this link if you are registering for any of the Harvest Call tracks.  Use this registration form only if you will attend no other Harvest Call event and only plan on coming to the LST Benefit Dinner.
