Presentation Times

“We praise you, God, we praise you, for your Name is near; people tell of your wonderful deeds.”

Conference Presentation Times

The worship conference offers so much content that it isn’t possible to attend everything that might interest you. It is structured this way to assure that there is something of interest to every type of participant in every presentation time slot. Participants can take a smorgasbord approach, picking a variety of topics. Participants can also concentrate on only one or two areas as indicated in the charts below. Most sessions are offered twice. Those offered three times are in bold. Those offered only once are in italic.
