Bible Family Conference
August 10-11, 2018
For many Christian families, there has been a slow but steady decline in the centrality of God’s Word in family life and education. Consequently, families have disintegrated because they were not “founded on the rock”. It’s time to lay again the foundation of God’s Word in our homes. Join Landmark Events as we team up with Generations for the Bible Family Conference in Washington, D.C.!
Mount St. Helens Expedition
August 22-24, 2018
At 8:32 Sunday morning, May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted. It was the deadliest and most economically destructive volcanic event in U.S. history—one which shook the very foundation of evolutionary theory as it provided a massive natural laboratory for the understanding of catastrophic geologic processes, and what we are learning only serves to bolster the validity of the Biblical creation account.
Cradle of Liberty Tour
September 17-22, 2018
Journey to Philadelphia — the Cradle of Liberty — site of the Continental Congress and signing of America’s Declaration of Independence.
