Leadership & Laity 2026

Welcome to the Leadership & Laity Annual Conference!

Date: [June 19th-20th, 2026]

Location: Mt. Zion Community Church

We are anticipating L&L 2026 to be yet another edifying conference. We have diligently labored in developing the theme, Baptistic Life, which will serve as an anchoring point for our time together and be used as a springboard for all of the speaking sessions.

The format for L&L 2026 will be very similar to 2025, containing exceptional expository messages, and rich, theologically driven music. We will have breakout sessions for men, women, and children.

Our speakers for 2026 include L&L staples Jim Orrick, Eugene Jennings, and Rocky Wyatt. Jim Renihan will also be delivering his "Deep Dive into Believer's Baptism" lecture series. We are also excited to announce our women's speaker will once again be Andrea Heck. We are honored that God has been blessing L&L Ministries throughout the last several years and hope you will take advantage of this amazing opportunity to join with us as we worship our great God!

Additional Notes:

Upcoming Announcements: As we approach the conference, informative announcements will be shared through Mt. Zion Community Church's website and Facebook page.

Children: While most of the conference is family integrated, children in the 8th grade and younger do not need tickets. We do request, and appreciate, that parents contact us at [email protected] to let us know how many children will be coming and their ages. This will help us keep track of seating. Nursery will be available for children up to kindergarten.

Pre-Conference: L&L will be having our Pre-Conference event on Thursday, June 18th, at Providence Baptist Church in Ponca City, OK. There will be a fellowship meal provided by L&L at 5:30pm followed by a message by Jim Renihan and one by Rocky Wyatt. A separate registration for this event is required.

A Special Note of Thanks: L&L is able to offer this annual conference due to the cooperation of the following local churches: Mt. Zion Community Church of Arkansas City, KS, Providence Baptist Church of Ponca City, OK, First Baptist Church of Argonia, KS, Lighthouse Baptist Church of Saint George, KS, Louisville Community Church, Louisville, KS, and the Spurgeon Baptist Association of Churches.
