6 Kids Program and Activities Creation Ministries International & MBC The hands-on activities will ensure interest levels are kept high. Creation for Kids Children s Program! Teaching children how to think about the issues Creation for Kids is especially designed for primary school children up to the age of 12. In a safe, fun filled environment they will learn about the big picture of the Gospel from Creation to Revelation, be equipped to withstand the onslaught of atheism, and defend their faith. Speaker Steve Lachonas, with live animals, will be present to entertain and teach the kids about God s incredible creatures! Note: Children s program will run from morning through to lunch time (Monday to Friday). Why Should I Come to This Conference? We are losing our children! Research indicates that 70% of teens who are involved in a church youth group will stop attending church Simil ar statements from Christian leaders aren t new, but many can t seem to identify the root cause of the problem. However, most front-line evangelists in the Western world have reached a consensus. The following quote is from a person who shares his faith more times in a month than most Christians ever will in their lives. I am an evangelist. I go around and talk with people. One-on-one conversations. My time on college campuses and talking to high schoolers, the number one answer that I get for there not being a God, so then I don t have to believe in [God/the gospel], is evolution. 1 Th at s a Christian evangelist s take (based on experience); how about an atheist s opinion? The most devastating thing though that biology did to Christianity was the discovery of evolution. Now that we know that Adam and Eve never were real people the central myth of Christianity is destroyed. 2 If there never was an Adam and Eve there never was an original sin. If there never was an original sin there is no need of salvation. If there is no need of salvation there is no need of a savior. And I submit that puts Jesus, historical or otherwise, into the ranks of the unemployed. 3 So despite some Christians believing there is no conflict between faith in the biblical God and evolutionary theory, many intelligent people around the world see the inconsistency clearly. This conference is an amazing opportunity for Christians of all ages to learn how to defend the plain reading of scripture from leading scientists and speakers in their field. 1. T.C.

7 dinosaurs genetics geology distant starlight Noah s Flood astronomy evangelism 2011 Super Conference August Creation Ministries International (CMI) is a Christian apologetics ministry dedicated CMI to upholding the authority of the Bible by equipping Christians to defend their faith and to be able to give answers to the questions many people have regarding science and the Bible. This multi-day conference will address all aspects of the creation/evolution issue in a fun, relaxing environment by experts in their field of study and ministry. Experience shows that such faithbuilding presentations embolden Christians in witnessing, since they get equipped with answers to some of the most-asked questions about science and the Bible, which are some of the most frequent objections to faith in Christ. Geology excursion and Blind chess challenge! Campers will have an opportunity to sign up for an amazing first hand geology excursion with Dr Emil Silvestru (Geologist and cave expert) and/or also try out their chess game vs Dr Jonathan Sarfati. Dr Sarfati will be playing multiple opponents while blindfolded! Up for the challenge? Special sessions for those interested in teaching Creation! Recognising that there are many Christians teaching about these issues already (or wanting to) within their home church/ community, CMI will be holding 2 special sessions dedicated to explaining how to present the creation message as a way to encourage those who may share from our experience. Learn what the most important topics to cover are and how to overcome common objections. Ask your questions and get answers from presenters that have been on the front lines presenting in churches and various venues week after week for many years. Testimonies CMI has held similar events in Australia and the US. Hear what attendees have said about them Overall For me this time was the family atmosphere. When my son looked up at me and said Dad I want to come to this again next year my heart leaped for joy. I brought my 17 year old son I believe this was a life changing event for him. My two teenagers loved it! Came for them but left filled myself. Of the speakers/talks: I was held captive by their talks. Really excellent speakers on great topics good variety. Exceptional. Professional presentations by all. We are amazed at who we heard in 4 days! We appreciate the level of cutting-edge research. Excellent with excellent credentials. All lectures were amazing and I loved having access to the Drs and speakers. First class, knowledgeable yet understandable by lay people. Many are surprised to see speakers mix with those attending, at meal times and coffee breaks etc. One person commented, typically, Having access to speakers was a real treat. 7 bio-chemistry aliens biology carbon/radioisotope dating theology fossils Creation Ministries International CMI Creation2011.com 7
