The Parenting Conference is a time to equip, encourage and empower our families by partnering with them to disciple their kids.

Join us at the Annapolis Campus for a day of learning about parenting in a Biblical way! Parents will select a track for the day, with options that include preschool, elementary and BASM tracks. Parents can attend tracks together, or attend different age group tracks separately. We will offer a time of worship, breakouts, you'll hear from our lead pastor Greg St. Cyr, as well as a panel for questions. Lunch and childcare are provided, but childcare is limited. If you are in need of a financial scholarship, please email Kristin.Collins@bayareacc.org.

Serve with us! 

We would love to have you serve with us at our Parent Conference! Click the link below to let us know you're interested.
If you are a family with kids who are nursery-age through high school, we encourage you to attend the conference rather than serve.
