2024 Men's Conference
Men, join us for our 2024 Men's Conference - Pressing Forward. Taken from the scripture Philippians 3:13-14, our prayer is you will be equipped and encouraged to press forward in what the Lord has for you.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
At 8:00am, we start the morning off with breakfast on our church grounds. We will be having a steak breakfast plate, coffee, and orange juice. This is a fun time for men to hang out and meet others. (Breakfast tickets are sold out.)
After the breakfast ends, we move into the main sanctuary for the conference to begin at 9:00am. Our Pastor David Rosales will be joined by Garid Beeler, pastor of Vision Calvary Chapel, and Jeff Struecker who is a former United States Ranger, as they take us into the word. These messages will focus on some of the daily challenges and topics that are relevant to men. For more information about the speakers, check out their bios below.
GUEST WORSHIP WITH THE KATINAS
We will also have guest worship from Dove Award Recipients, The Katinas. Since the days of their youth playing in their father’s church worship band, Sam, Joe, James, John and Jesse strive to touch people’s hearts through music with message. They have traveled the globe by way of American Samoa with the mission of hope and love at the heart of their vision. In a world of constant change and uncertainty, their commitment to this mission has been unwavering. Through their music and their actions, they strive to embody this love.
WHO IS INVITED?
Whether you attend Calvary Chapel Chino Valley, have a home church, or have never been to church, our 2024 Men's Conference is for all men in the community. A commonly asked question we receive is, “Can I bring my son?” If you believe that your son can quietly sit through the teachings, we welcome you to do so. The conference is recommended for ages 12 years old and up.
ATTENDING THE CONFERENCE IS FREE.
