Conference Theme
Our November 2024 conference theme is “The Journey: From the Call to the Reward”, which focuses on our journey as Christians from the moment God saves us and calls us into His plan to the moment we accomplish the plan He has for our lives and become who He created us to be. Each teaching session will focus on one aspect of our journey and some breakout sessions are planned to complement the themes touched upon in the teaching sessions.
