Three Regional Festivals of Young Preachers, with the first set to occur in less than three weeks: September 28-29.
So far 25 of the 36 spaces for Young Preachers have been taken, and the registrants are coming from all over Texas, plus Louisiana, Arkansas, and Missouri. They represent (among others) Southwestern Assembly of God University, Truett Seminary of Baylor University, Brite Divinity School, Perkins School of Theology, Huston-Tilloston University, as well as our hosting schools: Seminary of the Southwest and Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary.
Two Young Preachers from Dallas, Newtonia Hemphill, AoP '11 and Larry Terrell Crudup, AoP '10, and one young preacher from Austin, Krista Phillips, AoP '10, will be present to help host the event. And their colleague Dominique Robinson, AoP '11 is coming from Atlanta to be our plenary preacher.
The plenary worship service where she will speak will be held in the chapel at Seminary of the Southwest, following the Friday evening meal in Weeks Hall, also on the SSW campus. Read more>
