Due to seating and parking limitations, we must cap the number of attendees and enforce carpooling for all vehicles entering the lot. To facilitate this, we have created an online registration form for all saints planning to attend. Upon submitting the form, you will receive an acknowledgment letter. A notification for in-person attendance will be sent within a few days. Only those who receive the notification for in-person attendance will be permitted on the FSCC campus.
While this conference does not focus on any specific groups of saints, we strongly encourage working saints between the ages of 25 and 50 to take advantage of this opportunity for the in-person gathering. As the Lord is eager to raise up another generation to move with Him to close this age, we hope that many strong "young men" (1 John 2) among us will step forward to receive the Lord's speaking and commission.
Live Stream Information:
All messages will be live-streamed. If you are unable to attend in person, we encourage you to gather with other saints to watch the sessions together. The link will be sent to you via email before the conference.
Please pray that the Lord will use this gathering to further His work in us and through us for the building up of His Body. May we prepare our hearts for the release of His Word.
Lesson On Shepherding
Lessons on Shepherding
We will gather again on Zoom Saturday, September 28, 2024 at 10 am with brother Minoru for the next session of the Lessons on Shepherding. The link will be emailed to you. Outlines that may be used for this session are available on the front porch of the meeting house.
Future Dates of Fellowship with Brother Minoru:
October 12, 2024
November 16, 2024
December 7, 2024
These gatherings are a series of training by brother Minoru on shepherding as an urgent and crucial need among us. The goal of this training is that we see the vision and pick up the burden of shepherding eventually to learn the pattern and the practice of shepherding. This training is open to all saints, younger and older, and especially the seeking ones and the serving ones.
Outlines
Registration - As a reminder, if you have not already done so, you can signup for the Lesson on Shepherding by clicking this link . Registering to attend will also allow you to receive further communication of subsequent gatherings of this kind.
Attendance for each session is not mandatory and there is no fee. We hope that the saints would be burdened to practice these things seriously but we also realize there are many other time constraints on the working saints and as such this perfecting time will not demand or require the participating saints to go beyond their capacity.
According to Lamentations 3:40 “Let us examine our ways and try them, And let us turn again to Jehovah…” that we would be one with the Lord in His shepherding ministry.
Please pray for the Lord to continue to advance in us regarding this matter of shepherding, and that these sessions would be useful to the Lord to gain us as shepherds of His people,

TRUTH PURSUIT - Saturday Mornings 8:00 - 9:00
Truth Pursuit
We thank the Lord for leading the East Bay Churches in pursuing "the up-to-date truth" according to the ministry of the age in a definite way since February of last year. We are endeavoring to take the way of constitution by practicing Pray-Reading, Studying, Reciting and Prophesying (PSRP):
- Pray-Reading (P) is to exercise our spirit to touch the living Word in the written Word and have the divine reality, the processed Triune God as the applied word, infused into our being.
- Studying (S) is to exercise our mind of the spirit for the truth to get into us through our mentality, our understanding.
- Reciting (R) is to retain the understanding through the shining of the truth for constant and long-term nourishment. To practice in this way, we will have an accumulation of the truth and become persons continually under constant nourishment.
- After PSR, we will then be able to prophesy (P) and know how to present the truth to others, not merely to inspire them or to stir them up but to make them solid and constituted with the truth.
We will pursue and practice together every Saturday. For this coming year, may the Lord "Teach us then to number our days/ That we may gain a heart of wisdom" to redeem our Saturday mornings to buy the truth.
Corporate Pursuit Classes
Corporate Pursuit Classes at the Fremont Springs Conference Center
We are excited to present an opportunity for us to corporately pursue the Lord together. In this fresh series of pursuits, our aim is to digest the recently released ministry. For the upcoming sessions, we will review the messages from the International Training for the Elders and the Responsible Ones (ITERO), examining both the truth and application released in these meetings, as well as the practical outworking of the burden on shepherding. The renovated conference center provides an ideal setting for blending and pursuing the Lord together.
Class Details:
Duration and Schedule: Each session will consist of four weekly classes, with options to attend either on Wednesdays or Fridays. The content will be the same for both days.
Time: The classes will be divided into two periods: 9:30 am - 10:30 am, followed by a break, and then 11:00 am - 12:00 pm.
Content: The first period will focus on ITERO, while the second period will delve into the burden on shepherding.
Location: Fremont Springs Conference Center (FSCC), located at 47655 Warm Springs Blvd, Fremont, CA 94539.
