Pacific Northwest FCM

 

ANNUAL CREATIVE

MINISTRIES CONFERENCE!

 


 

Thank you for visiting our website.

 

We had 24 great years of PNW regional conferences of the FCM. Thanks for your support.

After our 24th annual conference in 2007 occurred (when only 33 attended), we sent a letter to all 300+ people on our PNWFCM mailing list asking for feedback about continuing the conference. Out of the 300, we got approximately 30 responses back, half of which said they didn’t care either way if we continued the conference and the other half saying “please continue.” Since this represents only about 15 people, we made the decision to not put on the conference for the time being (15 people attending does not make the conference financially possible). This may change in the future, but keep checking here for future updates.

 

Thanks for understanding,

 

Steve Taylor

Conference Chairman
