Michael Cumbie, a worship leader and musician, is the featured guest speaker. At 14, he heard a call from God to preach the Gospel in the Southern Baptist tradition. He served as a Protestant pastor for 23 years, but ultimately was received into the Catholic Church along with his wife and three children.

Father Troy Richmond will lead a session on the importance of regular confession. Father Michael Phillips and Father Rudolph Juarez will also engage conference participants.

Attendees will have the opportunity to receive the sacrament of reconciliation.
