A New Conference to Energize Your Faith
Catholic Witnesses, Inc. has announced details for the Flourish Your Faith Conference, which will be held on April 22nd & 23rd, 2016, in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Flourish welcomes an ecumenical coalition of nonprofit ministries and it features international speakers, an expo, break-out sessions, praise and worship music and free lunch. The speaker lineup includes international speakers Deacon Keith Fournier, founder of Common Good Foundation; Ryan Bomberger, founder of the Radiance Foundation; Leah Darrow, international speaker from top model to role model; and John Stemberger, president of the Florida Family Policy Council.
"The goal is for people to leave Flourish feeling energized in their faith," said conference co-organizer Adriana Gonzalez. "To live their faith in the public square without shame or fear. In today’s world, we see all too often the struggle facing Christians who wish to protect their sacred beliefs."
Flourish provides a time and place for Catholics and Christians from different denominations to gather together in unity for worship, encouragement, education, and fellowship. The dynamic Christian band, Louvation, will lead times of praise and worship, interspersed throughout the event.
"Flourish 2016 is a conference for teenagers and adults," explains Victoria Meyer who, with several others, coordinates the event. "Speakers this year, such as Leah Darrow and Ryan Bomberger, have huge youth-appeal. They really resonate with young people."
Leah Darrow was a top model who, after a dramatic encounter with Christ, became a role model of purity. With an equally moving testimony, Ryan Bomberger’s biological mother was raped, yet chose to give him life. Today Ryan speaks passionately and personally to defend life in the womb.
Meyer encourages families with teenagers and young adults to register as a family. "We are seeing parents signing up with their kids. It will be a bonding experience for them. We love that," she says with a smile.
Flourish is a free conference but registration is required because space is extremely limited. Attendees will be invited to share, participate and develop their Christian virtues. For the full lineup of speakers and programing and to register visit FlourishYourFaith.com.
