From 3-6 August, ACBC Africa will host their second annual conference at Lynnwood Baptist Church, Pretoria. The conference this year will focus on the core theological theme of Counseling and the Sufficiency of Scripture.

We encourage everyone to attend as much of this conference as possible! We trust you will find it very helpful in understanding how God uses His Word, the Bible, to change us and make us more like Jesus.
