Info and Application for YWR to National Convention in Oklahoma 2027

Guidelines for Selecting and Serving as an LWML Young Woman Representative (YWR)

• Any mature young woman, preferably 22-35 years of age*, who is a member of the LCMS and has not previously attended a national convention as a Young Woman Representative is eligible to become a YWR.
• A YWR candidate should have love and devotion for her Lord Jesus Christ and is able to participate in the full scope of the convention.
• A YWR candidate will fill out the application completely and honestly and return it to the district by the due date.
• A YWR candidate is able to be away from home/work/children for the entire convention and the travel time involved**.

Applications are Due on ___TBD __

While 22-35 is the suggested age, we welcome women who are outside of the age range as we look to further the reach of the LWML. We rely on the district board to know if the young women selected are the right representatives.  

  We wish to make all young women, including their children, feel welcomed at convention. If a YWR wishes to bring a young child(ren), check with your district president or YWR Rep for more info on children at the convention.
