‘Him we proclaim’ (Col.1.18). So writes the Apostle Paul of his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. As Christian ministers we endeavour to proclaim him too, and from every part of the Bible. Our conference will be devoted to helping us in that great task. The theme is Him we Proclaim – Preaching Christ from all the Scriptures.
