Conference Schedule and Format

So briefly, when it comes to the conference, it's a two-day format. We start at roughly noon on the Friday, talk until dinner, have dinner, and then there's a keynote lecture after dinner. And what I believe Dr. Dolezal is going to do is work towards that keynote.

So he's primarily focused on attributes or perfections of God. We mentioned simplicity and there's a plethora of other ones in the book. So, he will kind of move those topics to the pinnacle keynote speech, which is going to be the Friday night. So, Friday night's the headliner.

That's the one to come, if you're coming to one. There is an optional dinner. We're limited in numbers. It's $25 for the dinner.

That happens at the Free Reform Church here in Chilliwack. So, FRC, Yale Road by the highway there, that's where the location is. There's coffee that will be supplied, there's breaks, singing was mentioned, psalters and hymns, piano and organ, which we are unanimous in agreement on. Time for fellowship.

Please, if you know that other people are attending, encourage them to fellowship before and after, to network. There's not a whole lot of time in the church during the conference for that, but please make connections. As mentioned, this booklet, it has the outline in it. The booklet is available for free.

It'll be there. And it has room for notes and questions. And with questions, we will be having a live Q&A at the very end. So Brother Cam here is going to facilitate that, and we will have Doctors Dozol and Renahan, and Doctor... maybe not Doctor...

Bishop Butler. No, Bishop Butler. Cardinal. There was a heretical Bishop Butler.

Was there? Or not heretical. We'll be forming a Q&A board, so questions beforehand, absolutely send them in and we'll try to touch on that.
