2006 FAIR Conference
The Foundation for Apologetic Information & Research (FAIR) DescriptionEvery day seems to bring new attempts by the Church's critics to denigrate its divine mission. From the efforts of professional anti-Mormon ministries to a whole new generation of critics, the efforts of the naysayers seem to continue unabashed. This year's FAIR Conference is geared toward providing the information and answers you need to deal with a variety of interesting topics. Don't miss this conference! This year's speakers will address wide-ranging topics sure to please every interest. We invite you to join us for a frank, thought-provoking, faith-building, and enjoyable experience. In past years, people have traveled from as far as England, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and New Zealand just to come to the FAIR conferences. Come see what the excitement is all about! -- Scott Gordon Location
