“As a first timer I did not know what to expect. What an amazing experience it was. I felt as if the presenters where speaking directly to me, naming problems and fears that I thought only I experienced. The worship was amazing, the masses so reverent, and the speakers were excellent. I would recommend this conference to anyone and everyone in priestly ministry or formation.”
