Cairns Christian Conference

As with all the CMS conferences, the Cairns Christian Conference includes a great blend of Bible teaching that is really applied to life, with input on what God is doing around the world.

In the past we’ve heard from great speakers like John Chapman, Mike Raiter, Simon Manchester, John Dickson, and Steve Abbott - really easy to listen to, great teaching, great encouragement!

We start with a sausage sizzle Friday night before the first session, then continue on till Saturday afternoon. There is time for a chat and fellowship during the breaks. The kids are cared for too, with their own special program of fun and learning.

Come and make it a weekend; it’s a wonderful opportunity to be encouraged in your faith and meet with other Christians.
