Come join us for the Preacher’s Delight January 2023, great preaching, singing, special music, fellowship, and helpful resources as you prepare to launch out into this new year into the Lord’s Harvest.
This years conference is organized into three different meetings. The main adult service with Dr. John Wilkerson, Dr. Paul Chappell, and our guest pastors and people. For the teens we will once again host a conference special with Larry Chappell and Dave Duffett. The third format is in our B bldg. Complex Spanish Auditorium. A special meeting of pastors and churches from across the Northwest from our Spanish speaking churches. Our host Pastor Gabriel Duran extends an invitation to join them for services Monday night, Tuesday morning, and Tuesday evening, with special guest speaker Pastor Gil Torres.
Three great opportunities for God’s people to gather together for great preaching, great music, great fellowship and renewed vision. We hope you will make it a part of your New Year’s plan and come join us personally, and physically for the Preacher’s Delight 2023
Over two decades ago, we began hosting the Preacher’s Delight Conference in January. This conference began as a time for fellowship among independent Baptist pastors and their people, to encourage pastors laboring together in church planting, missions’ outreach, and personal evangelism. It is exciting to see God’s blessings poured out at the beginning of each new year, as pastors come from across the country and join us for inspiring preaching, stirring music, and encouraging fellowship!
We are always blessed by the missionary presentations, book tables, ministry helps, and the many materials made available. As always, there is no need to register for the Preacher’s Delight Conference and there is never a fee.
The main adult service with Dr. John Wilkerson, Dr. Paul Chappell, and our guest pastors and people, on Monday and Tuesday evenings. Tuesday morning the youth services will join us in the main auditorium with Dr. John Wilkerson and Dr. Paul Chappell.
We hope you will make it a part of your New Year’s plan and come join us for the Preacher’s Delight 2023!
Ministry Displays
Each year we host displays from Bible colleges and youth camps, missionaries and church planters that are in need of ministry support to get to their fields, Bible printing and publishing ministries that need your help to get the printed Word into the hands of missionaries on foreign fields. Would you prayerfully consider who you could help this year?
If you would like to display your ministry’s information or resources, please contact Mrs. Andrea Sterling at (253) 927-7673 or fbc@foundedonfaith.com no later than Monday, January 2nd.
Fellowship
Due to the health concerns we still confront, we will not be having meals following the services. We will have a refreshment area open in B building before and after all services with coffee and hot beverages, prepackaged snacks and pastries available. We encourage you to come enjoy a time of fellowship together while browsing our Resource Center.
Children's Programs
Nurseries are provided for Infant-4yrs old each service in B building on our main floor, along with a private room for nursing mothers. Each class is structured to allow children plenty of playtime while also having an age appropriate lesson or story time, activity or craft, and snack time.
All of our nurseries are equipped with a paging system for the main auditorium or a text messaging system for parents that attend the youth services.
We believe that children are just as important a part of this conference as the adults, so we have created a special children’s program for ages 5-12. Each service, your child will have a Bible lesson, craft time, snack, and game time.
We have seen this program continue to grow over the past several years, so for this year’s evening services we will be expanding to the Life Christian Church facility where our youth services are held. On Tuesday afternoon our children’s classes will be held in B building.

MAP & DIRECTIONS
Each year we host a youth meeting in conjunction with the main conference. We are thrilled to have two special guest youth speakers this year - Bro. Dave Duffett of Bible Baptist Church Fairbanks, AK and Bro. Larry Chappell of Lancaster Baptist Church, Lancaster, CA. These men are not only second generation preachers from great ministries used by God, but each have a sincere heart and genuine desire to connect with and reach our youth, to encourage and exhort our next generation!
Teens receive helpful messages and spiritual tools equipping them to enter the new year ready to discover and accomplish God’s will. It is a chance for them to set aside other influences and open their hearts to great preaching, teaching, special music, and valuable truths. Following the evening services teens enjoy a time of refreshments and fellowship. You won’t want to miss it!
