Dear Tolkien Enthusiasts, Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The Christ & Tolkien Conference has been rescheduled for May 19-21, 2022.
We know that this is now the second rescheduling that has happened for this event (originally scheduled for Oct. 2020 then for Oct. 2021). But because of the events of the global pandemic, we all understand why. But we will not give up, and the enthusiasm and hope for this event continue and grow.
If you bought tickets and the new dates don’t work for you, you can receive a full refund by contacting info@christandtolkien.com.
The deadlines for both the Call For Papers (CFP) and Call For Stories (CFS) have also been extended into 2022. If you submitted a paper or a story and want to withdraw your submission or have other concerns, please contact us and let us know (CFP: academic@christandtolkien.com; CFS: fiction@christandtolkien.com).
We plan to keep the vision of holding such a wonderful conference in place and not to accept a “second best” of debuting as a wholly online conference. We continue to have an incredibly positive response, and we are more convinced than ever of the great need for creating and nurturing opportunities for Christians to share our mutual love for Middle-earth and all of Tolkien’s literary creations.
We pray that restrictions will soon be lifted and that the fight against this worldwide affliction will be fully victorious.
Meanwhile, keep praying, hold on, and we’ll see you next year. Forth Eorlingas!
The Christ & Tolkien Conference Planning Committee
