No I won't be.

Although I would like to go, it doesn't work well with school and I'm a retreat the weekend before it.

 

I hate that I will miss it, but I will be at the Shepherd's Conference in March with Piper, MacArthur, Mohler, Dever, Lawson, etc.

 

That's March 7-11 so you can mark it on your calendar.

 

Bryan - I hear you.

Jonathan - I would love to go the The Shepherd's conference in March, but I can't afford the travel and hotel. The conference at Piper's church is only an eight hour drive, and we can stay with my pastor's brother while we are there - so basically we are just paying for the conference. Our congregation is still way too small to send people to anything that requires plane fare and hotels.

I hope to attend the shepherd's perhaps in 2009 or 2010, if the Lord permits, but you never know.

 

Having a limited study allowance I have to be selective on which conferences I attend.

Although the Desiring God Pastors Conference is tempted, the cost makes it prohibitive for me.

I attend the Banner of Truth Ministers' Conference yearly, and this year I am considering adding the Simeon Trust workshop on Biblical Exposition in Toronto in March. It is not very expensive, I can stay with a pastor friend there, and it is only 200Km away from where I live.

 

My pastor is going. We prayed for y'all last night at our weekly prayer meeting.

 

Thanks Craver!
