On August 10, 2020, teachers and administrators from across the NID gathered at St. John’s, La Grange for the second annual Back-to-School worship service and keynote.

Pastor Mark Stapleton led worship. President Allan Buss focused his message on, “We are summoned (called) for such a time as this,” from the book of Esther.

The keynote speaker, Andy Pederson (Professor of English at Concordia University Chicago), provided insights and humor on finding joy in our life journey and seeing blessings in the coming year.

We pray God blesses our schools as they prepare for the upcoming school year.
