On Thursday, August 24 we held the Citizen Impact Annual Conference (see the pictures below). With our ministry team going through severe trials just a few weeks before the conference, it was only with the Lord’s help that we were able to have a successful conference. We have a great conference staff, of course, and the Pinecrest Baptist Church staff and volunteers were amazing! Each speaker at the conference was tremendous, with the culmination of Dr. William Lile, our Keynote Speaker.

Here is a comment from a pastor who attended with some people from his church: “Just a quick note to thank you again for a great conference yesterday. The guys with me from our church really enjoyed the day, and they came back with a refreshed zeal for being involved.  Your perseverance to see the conference through with all the trials of the last month was a blessing to see.”

We asked for contributions at the conference to help with expenses of the Annual Conference and overall ministry finances. If you were unable to attend but would still like to help, click this link. You can give for just general operating expenses, or there are several areas you can give specifically for: conference expenses, Washington DC trip this month, scholarship account, summer intern expenses, or for printing/replenishing education and promotional materials.
