The camp is situated on 108 acres of wooded hills and fields. Retreat houses are modern and climate-controlled. Camp Wartburg offers summer camp programs for children and year-round retreat facilities for youth, church organizations and other groups. This program is for musicians of every sort who want to study with top-notch musicians and theologians who can help them grow from where they are in their various parish situations. Ill. LME is designed to make efficient use of time for the part-time parish musician who probably already has too many duties to attend to.
Class sizes are small, with plenty of opportunity for questions and group discussion.
Classes are taught by local pastors and qualified church musicians. Generous financial assistance is available. Delegates and guests from the 2001 Convention of The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, as well as friends of the Seminary from St. Louis area and metro-east congregations are invited to this special event. The day will feature two carillon concerts, the Waterloo German Band, campus tours, chapel organ demonstrations, library displays of historical items, video presentations of the 1926 campus dedication, an open house at Concordia Historical Institute and KFUO Lutheran Radio on the Seminary campus and an antique car show. The bookstore also will be open for the event.
