About the Conference
The purpose of this conference is to encourage and strengthen individuals, couples, and families with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in accordance with the Great Commission, Matthew 28:18-20. It is our prayer that this conference will offer opportunity for Christian fellowship among the saints from congregations of the RPCUS as well as the entire Christian community as described in Psalm 133. Although there will be ample time for rest and fellowship, the main focus of this conference will be the study of God's Word, our chief source of encouragement.
Oversight of Youth
Whole families are welcome. The dorm has suites that will accommodate up to five people. We request that anyone younger than 18 who is not coming with his own family be assigned by his parents or session to another family or adult for supervision during the conference.
Location
The conference will be held at Bluefield College, Bluefield, VA. This campus is located in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains and offers: softball field, tennis courts, basketball court, scenic hiking trail, ping pong etc. The Bluefield City Park next door is also available and will be especially enjoyed by young children.
