Marriage & Family Conference
March 20-21, 2026 Cole Camp, MO
This conference is for everyone: For husbands, wives, parents, children, widows, and single people. Through the Word of God, we will grow in our appreciation for God’s wonderful gift of marriage and the family, and return to our homes encouraged and better equipped to lead faithful lives, regardless of the makeup of our family.
