IN KENTUCKY
Lord willing, two full buses will be taking in the sites of the beautiful state of Kentucky this summer. One bus will originate at MLC in New Ulm, MN on June 16 and the other will begin at St John Lutheran Church (Oakwood) in Oak Creek, WI on June 17. A detailed itinerary is available by clicking here.
The Lord called Professor Lyle Lange to his side on December 1. We are very thankful that he is home with Jesus, but saddened that our fellowship with him is on recess until we join him there. As many of you know, he was passionate about apologetics, held the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter in high regard, and had intended to join us as one of our guides. In his place, we're pleased to inform you that Rev Mike Otterstatter, MLC Vice-President for Mission Advancement, and Greg Diersen, MLC Professor of Science, will be joining us as guides and devotion leaders.
Tour Logistics
Transportation
What a privilege we have to travel freely throughout the beautiful country God gave us. Still, traveling can be tough. Sleeping in a different bed, eating foods that we aren't accustomed to, and spending the bulk of the day out and about can be a bit unsettling. That's why we make every effort to keep you safe, comfortable, healthy, and happy. A modern, amenity filled motorcoach packed with creature-comforts certainly helps.

Accommodations
Sleeping well, starting the day with a satisfying breakfast, and a comfortable place to connect with your new friends...all critical components for a successful tour. We're confident you'll enjoy all of the hotels we've reserved for you. Those traveling from New Ulm will have single night stays en route at Best Western Plus in Milwaukee. Those joining us in Milwaukee will have the option to join us on June 16 and/or June 24 if they'd like ($100/room). The hotel provides complimentary shuttle service to the Milwaukee airport less than 1 mile away. Click on the Read More button below to learn more about all the hotels we have reserved.
Worship and Meals
Perhaps what makes the MLC Alumni tours different from many others is the daily worship and Christian fellowship. Our guides will lead us on a daily journey into the Word as we travel to and through Kentucky. We'll also enjoy a WELS worship service with our brothers and sisters at Beautiful Savior, Cincinnati, OH (and Grace, Milwaukee, WI for those returning with us to New Ulm). Half of your meals are included in the tour cost (breakfast at the hotel each morning, 2 lunches, and 3-4 dinners). Complimentary water and snacks are also provided throughout the tour.
