The Huether Lasallian Conference is an annual gathering that brings together Lasallian educators from the region. Each year, it rotates in location and theme, with a strong emphasis on addressing innovative issues. This event is open to all faculty and staff involved in Lasallian ministries. The conference features a diverse program that includes keynote speeches, panel discussions, interactive breakout sessions, and spiritual prayer services. It invites scholars both within and outside the Lasallian tradition to contribute their expertise on topics related to the annual theme.
The Huether Lasallian Conference is an annual gathering of Lasallian educators in the Region. Location and theme change each year with a focus on innovative educational issues. All faculty and staff of Lasallian ministries are welcome to attend. Through a thoughtful blend of keynote addresses, panel presentations, breakout sessions, and prayer services, we call upon scholars from within and outside the Lasallian tradition in matters pertaining to each year’s theme.
In 1973, the Regional Education Council of the Christian Brothers in the United States, under the leadership of Brother Francis Huether, FSC, organized a workshop to provide secondary school administrators a forum to address educational concerns. When Brother Francis retired from his position as the National Secretary of Education, the annual workshop was given his name. The rich diversity of Lasallian apostolic endeavors in the Region is more effectively represented, as increasing numbers of educators from our colleges and universities, elementary schools, middle schools, childcare agencies, and special ministries for the poor come together with teachers, campus ministers, counselors, and administrators from our secondary schools.
The Conference has provided an opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of distinguished Lasallian educators from each District at its closing banquet, an important tradition begun in 1987 that continues to this day.

“I thought it was very inspiring. I felt that I have taken something back to my position that will enable me to be a better teacher, and I’m grateful for that.”
