We are so excited for the NCC Spring Conference 2023: Revelation of Hope! Please see the full program listed below, as well as a directory of our conference staff! We pray that the Lord may bless these meetings and that they may be a benefit to all those in attendance, either in person or virtually!
The book of Revelation can often be mistaken as an apocalyptic nightmare. But in reality, it brings the dream of redemption to life, with Christ at the center. Join us for our annual spring conference to experience this wonderful Revelation of Hope together.
If you take any photos during the event we would love to see them! Use the hashtag #NCCSpring2023 to share and tag @sdarmncc on Instagram!
