Unfortunately, rising costs havedemanded an increase in the pricesfor the Conference. However, we stillbelieve the Conference offers greatvalue for money both in the standardsof accommodation and variety ofmeetings. Of course, the true valueof our gathering at Aberystwyth liesin Gods gracious dealings with usthrough His word.We hope to seeyou in August.
