The only requirement for salvation and eternal life was clearly stated by our Lord Jesus when He was meeting with Nicodemus—”You must be born again.”
Join us as we plumb the depths of these words of Christ, and consider what it requires to experience new birth. There will be several times for questions during the weekend, including during the provided meals.
We are looking forward to seeing you in person at the twenty-second annual Southern California Former Adventist Fellowship Conference, “You Must Be Born Again”. Books and Proclamation! magazines will be gifted to each conference attendee.
Our venue is intimate. You will not be lost in a crowd and there will be many opportunities to fellowship and grow new friendships. Because of our limited size, there is only room for 100 attendees. Register today!
