Shepherds' Conference
About Shepherds´ Conference - South Africa
It´s easy to follow trends. Following the Scripture can be much harder. Therefore, each year Grace Fellowship Pretoria brings you the South African Shepherds´ Conference, with top-quality Bible teachers from ministries overseen by Dr. John MacArthur (Grace Community Church, The Master´s Seminary, and The Master´s College) to give extensive instruction on Bible interpretation, church leadership, philosophy of ministry, biblical counselling, expository preaching, current theological issues, youth ministry, and a host of other important topics.
Some of the speakers from past Shepherds´ Conferences include Dr. Wayne Mack (a biblical counsellor who has written a number of books on marriage, the family, and counselling), Dr. Richard Mayhue (Dean of The Master´s Seminary), Rick Holland (head of Grace Community Church´s Youth Ministry), Carey Hardy (Pastor of Adult Ministries at Grace Community Church), and many more.
Since 1996, hundreds of pastors and lay leaders across our country have benefited from the clear, practical, and biblical teaching of this conference. Why not you?
The South African Shepherds´ Conference is held at the end of May and beginning of June in three cities: Pretoria, Polokwane, and Cape Town. The conference runs over three days, with tea and lunch included. The cost of registering for the three-day conference is surprisingly low. We hope you´ll join us for this year´s conference!
