Faithful Men’s Meeting
The Faithful Men's Conference is a call to Christian manhood. The Christian husband and father must make obedience to Christ the priority of his life. The tide can be turned only by reaching a generation of men with the Word of God. We must begin by helping boys become the men God intends for them to become. This meeting begins with a Saturday night sportsmen’s banquet with a complimentary meal, sports exhibits, and a gospel message. The conference begins on Sunday and goes through Wednesday evening with Bible preaching in the mornings and evenings, as well as a 150-voice men’s choir each evening.
