Regional Festivals for Young Preachers will be held in Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Kentucky, and Texas during 2015 with the preaching theme HEAVEN & EARTH.
Green Lake Conference Center in beautiful Green Lake, Wisconsin, will hold its second Regional Festival on July 7-8. Last year the lake-front resort welcomed 10 Young Preachers for their first AoP event, and this year up to 30 Young Preachers will be accommodated.
New England will see its second Regional Festival. Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary, north of Boston, will host the event for Young Preachers on Saturday, October 10. Tim Norton, AoP’15, who is a student there, was a plenary preacher at the recent National Festival in Dallas.
The fourth annual Texas Regional Festival will be October 24 at the Sweet Home Baptist Church in Round Rock, Texas. Sweet Home is the home church of well-known AoP’10 preacher Larry Terrell Crudup who has preached at five National Festivals.
Finally, the Louisville Metro AoP Chapter will host a Regional Festival at Louisville Seminary on October 31. This is the first Regional Festival for Louisville since it hosted three consecutive National Festivals in 2010, 2011, and 2012.
The preaching theme for all four Regional Festivals is HEAVEN & EARTH. The preaching texts are organized under four headings (creating, receiving, surviving, and redeeming Heaven and Earth).
Registration for these four events is open to any Young Preacher 14 to 28 years old. Registration will open on-line on March 1, 2015.
