The theme for this year is Christian: Title or Identity? The conference will challenge attendees to ask themselves, "what does your salvation mean to you?" What place does your faith and service hold in your life? Is it a superficial badge of honor; just a way to join the "in-crowd"? Or is it something that transforms your soul and unshackles your heart? Join them as they dive into this topic. Come with your questions, and be ready to dig into God’s Word.

Vessels of Honor is a young adult conference that seeks to honor the Lord Jesus Christ by grounding this generation in the Word of God. The speakers are Ali Farhadi and Steve Price, along with many old and new faces sharing in the breakout seminars. The conference will be hosted in the Kansas City Metro area on Memorial Day Weekend (May 23-26, 2025). It is open to anyone aged 18 or older.

Join them at the Ark Encounter for a weekend with likeminded sisters in Christ as they learn from God’s Word and “encourage one another on to love and good works.” Singleness is a wonderful blessing, but it can be a season of unique challenges too. Sarah has a heart to encourage and strengthen singles, having walked this road herself until she got married at age 41. Whether a woman feels called to remain single long term or whether she is waiting for God to bring her a husband, they pray this conference will encourage them deeply, giving practical help, spurring on in ministry, and providing great fellowship with single sisters who are in a similar season of life as they seeks to press on in Christ! This conference also includes a special session with Ken Ham and an opportunity to see the Ark Encounter. For more information: www.brightlightsministry.com/ark.
