Conclave 2024, which is fully online, is just one week away - May 31 to June 2nd.

We've worked to make Conclave affordable, but unfortunately, we have no control over anything else- if a weekend of learning and fellowship is something you want to do and circumstances have put it out of reach - let us know and we'll help make that possible.

The Apostolic Johannite Church is fortunate to have donors that kindly contribute to helping folks for whom a helping hand would make all the difference.
