This year’s Summer Conference speaker is Russ Whitfield, founding pastor of Grace Mosaic in Washington, DC. Russ is a pastor, consultant, and creative who has spent the last two decades serving in a wide range of ministry contexts—from urban church planting and theological education to cross-cultural mission and community formation. He recently stepped into a new season of ministry in Atlanta, where he is helping to plant a new church, writing and consulting on cross-cultural ministry, and resourcing communities for the life of hospitality. He also serves as the Assistant Coordinator of Cross-Cultural Advancement for Reformed University Fellowship and as a guest lecturer in Practical Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary. His writing has appeared in publications such as “Heal Us, Emmanuel,” “All Are Welcome,” “Sapientia,” and “9Marks Journal.” Whether through teaching, consulting, or creative projects, Russ works to cultivate spaces of connection, reflection, and renewal—both within faith communities and in everyday spaces where people live, work, and gather. He and his wife, Vanessa, are raising four fun-loving children and discovering fresh joy in the rhythms of life and work in the South.
Nursery care is provided for children ages 0-2. Each evening during our Summer Conference, kids K3 - Grade 5, will enjoy fun lessons, songs, and activities planned just for them! Our student ministry will host a slip 'n slide for all ages on Sunday evening.
After the conference on Sunday night, July 13, there will be a dinner and a fire truck slip 'n slide. The cost for dinner is $8 per person, with a $30 family cap. Pay at the door. Make your reservation here.
After the conference on Monday night, July 14 we are hosting a carnival complete with food trucks (OMG Pretzel Bites, Kona Ice, and more!), a bounce house and blow-up slide, popcorn, balloons, facepainting, and a dunk tank for kids and families to enjoy.
We hope you'll make plans to join us.
