Invitation from CLF Student Board Member:
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
When I signed up for my first CLF Student Conference in January 2005 at the University of Alberta, I had no idea what I was stepping into. During that weekend, the Lord opened my eyes about my need to have a renewed mind about my studies. Without knowing it, I had been largely accepting the secular humanist worldview of my legal education, as I had in fact been doing all through my schooling. I also forged meaningful friendships with other Christian law students, and met and heard from Christian lawyers who very much applied biblical principles to the manner in which they managed every aspect of their career, from work-life balance to ministering to their clients and everything in between. At subsequent conferences I have received direction from the Lord about His purposes for my future practice, along with powerful commissioning and ministry. In short, these conferences have blessed me beyond anything that I could ask or imagine. I look forward to welcoming you to the 2007 CLF National Student Conference at my own law school – UBC – trusting that you too will be touched by the same God in the ways that He needs to touch you, that you may walk with Him ever more closely, and serve Him ever more effectively.
Geoffrey Trotter
Student Representative, CLF Board of Directors

Invitation & Overview - CLF Student Conference Director:
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I’d like to echo Geoffrey’s encouraging invitation to you all on attending the 2007 CLF National Student Conference, and I would also like to tell you more about the inspiring program that is in store for you if you decide to join us in Vancouver next February!  In light of what we learned from last year’s student conference at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, our organization team in Vancouver decided that this year’s conference theme would be Justice: A Light to the Nations. We wanted to focus on how it is our calling to do biblical justice in Canada and abroad, and for us to be informed of this early on, so that we will be fully equipped to serve God by the time we are ready to enter into the practice of law. Thus, to reflect this year’s theme, we have planned the following speaker sessions: 
                        The Christian Legal Journey (panel ranging from student, to associate to mentor);                       
                        Christian Leadership, Ethics & Morality in Practice;
                        Evangelism/Apologetics breakout sessions;
                        Law Missions Abroad;
                        Civil Liberties Litigation in Canada;
                        Work/Life Balance panels for men and women; 
                        Mentorship sessions on both conference days to foster discussion and mentorship between students & mentors; 

                        Dr. John G. Stackhouse, Jr., Prof. of Theology & Culture at Regent College as our banquet keynote speaker.
Please imagine this inspiring weekend against the backdrop of the beautiful mountains and lush greenery of Vancouver, British Columbia. Included in the conference program are many fun social activities designed to explore and enjoy our thriving metropolis, including possible excursions to Stanley Park, Granville Island, and vibrant Downtown Vancouver. In conclusion, please consider joining us in Vancouver next February for the 2007 CLF National Student Conference! It’ll be a conference true to inspire you spiritually, mentally and emotionally, and will hopefully allow you to closer decipher what God’s called you to do as a lawyer.
