Enter the 2018 Annual Gathering Photo Contest
Entry Form | FAQs | Deadline: July 16th
Get your cameras ready!
Each year, the people who make up our association are invited to submit photos depicting how their congregation has been "in Mission for Christ" over the past year to be considered for publication in our Annual Gathering book.
If your congregation has taken part in any projects, organized any events, or participated in any mission or ministry activities over the past year that exemplify what it means to be "in Mission for Christ", we're inviting YOU to submit photos for this year's Annual Gathering Photo Contest!
Here's How:
- Photos must be submitted by a congregation member, pastor, or church staff member who is part of an LCMC congregation
- Go to www.lcmc.net/2018-photocontest and review the photo guidelines
- Upload a photo, fill out the entry form, and click "submit"
All eligible photos received by Monday, July 16th will be considered for publication in the 2018 Annual Gathering Book. Hard copy books will be available at the Annual Gathering in October, and a digital edition will be available on our website and in our mobile app once the Annual Gathering begins.
Photos will be selected based on subject matter (how closely they fit the theme), quality of the photo (not squished, blurry, or overlapped by text or clip art), and the story behind the photo (the photo description explaining how your congregation is making a difference).
To help illustrate the theme of "Growing Up" throughout our book, we would love to see photos of service projects, outreach events/activities/programs, mission trips, creative/artistic projects, disaster relief, or church planting efforts from any and all age groups within your congregation!
"Growing Up" is the theme of this year's Annual Gathering, which will be held October 7-10, 2018 in Des Moines, Iowa.

Kristy Thomas is a nerd with an affinity for 90s music, collecting antiques, and creating her own Halloween decorations. When she needs to unwind (which is pretty much all of the time), she likes arts & crafts, hiking and camping with her dogs, and playing the ukulele. As Communications & Public Relations Specialist, she is responsible for keeping the people of LCMC informed of what’s going on within the association and for tackling all of the creative-type projects. For the future, she would like to see the congregations of LCMC be proactive in raising up future leaders and for the “20-30 somethings” to be able to make some cool things happen, both within The Church and throughout the world.
