The 2023 theme for “Luz de las Naciones” is “Nuestra Tierra” (Our Land).

“We are excited to be back in the Conference Center once again,” said Israel González-Nieri, Luz de las Naciones director. “This year’s cultural event will feature new music and dances depicting not only the traditions and beauty of the land of our forefathers, but also how blessed we are to live in the promised land that God prepared for us long ago. We will also celebrate the arrival of the first Latino settlers that came to this valley a century ago looking for a better life and the opportunities to continue to build the kingdom of God on earth.”
