We can connect with anyone worldwide at any moment, yet our world has slowly become more isolated and lonelier than ever before. If we aren’t careful, we might find ourselves on a parenting island - without community and feeling like we are the only ones experiencing the joys and hardships that come with raising kids who love Jesus.

At Milestones ’24, we want to help you discover the good gift and unlock the full potential of parenting within a Jesus-centered Family on Mission. Parenting is done best when done together.

We will host our Milestones ‘24 Conference for our Family of Churches at our Downtown Church on Saturday, April 27, 2024.

• Doors Open, 8:30am; Event 9:00am - 1:00pm

• Lunch will be provided for all attendees (including those in Kidtown)

• Kidtown for the event will be provided. Kids will enjoy Camp Kidtown activities and lessons throughout the day. Snacks and drinks will also be provided throughout the day.

For more information, email here.

Milestones’ vision is to train parents to be the most confident, well-equipped, joy-filled parents they can possibly be. Every year we host a conference weekend with the goal of encouraging and engaging parents with Jesus’ transformative power in our lives.

God has a heart for the orphan, the widow, the poor, and the sick. He cares for the most vulnerable and marginalized people. We want to be Christ-like and do the same. So each year, our Family of Churches rallies around our partner organizations for Serve the City Weekend. 

This year, Serve the City will take place on Saturday, March 16, so save the date on your calendar!
