The West Coast Faculty Conference will return to Campus by the Sea August 1-6, 2010. Our featured speaker, Dr. Terry Morrison, shares more about our topic:

“Spiritual Formation is easier said than done. Yet Jesus clearly summed up the Father’s will – even for academics: “Love the Lord your God with ALL your heart, mind and strength, and love your neighbor as much as you love yourself.”

So we’ll ask the questions: “Formation into what?” and “What is ‘Spiritual’?” I’ll give some real life examples of academics who are living this out and we’ll look at resources that could help us to develop in Spiritual Formation.”

Please reserve this week for yourself and join us for Bible study and small groups as well as opportunities to rest, play or visit with friends and family with no formal program. You will also be able to enjoy all the unique and fun activities that Campus by the Sea affords, including hiking, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and water skiing. Both faculty and families alike enjoyed the 2009 West Coast Conference and we hope to see many of our guests again next summer. Won’t you join us?

We aim to make our Faculty Conference family-friendly. Spouses are welcome to attend all of our sessions. Child care and children’s programs are planned. But we would also be eager to welcome faculty who are single or married without children to join us.
