Saturday Keynote

“Signs of Hope: Evangelization and Transformation”


Saturday, January 13, 2018


Although we are confronted with cultural hurricanes, HOPE endures.  Pope Francis has reminded us that “Hope is both an anchor (cf. Heb 6:18-19) giving us security amid the storms of life, and a ‘sail’ driving us forward towards the safe harbor of eternal life.” Come along for a voyage that will help us to recognize God’s hand at work in the storms and the silence. Through Scripture, stories, and song, this presentation will inspire us, with the help of God’s grace, to GO! Build a Future of Hope! – Brian Butler
