“For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy” (Colossians 1: 16-18)

Thank You to Everyone

The September 17th Let There Be Light Creation Conference was a HUGE success!

Thank you so much to everyone at Answers in Genesis, especially Ken Ham and Dr. Andrew Snelling, for making this happen.  We feel so blessed you took a chance on us and came to speak in Niagara Falls.

But most importantly, we praise and give thanks to God for blessing us every single step of the way.

Here are some pictures from the event (courtesy of Answers in Genesis):

Children's Activities at the Conference


JandY Ministry will be presenting "Dino Days: Digging for God's Truth," an age appropriate study of creation for your children that will captivate their minds and hearts by learning about God and His beautiful creation! Children are encouraged to put on the full armor of God to withstand the enemy. Our strength is in our knowledge… we need to know what the Bible teaches and be ready to give an answer when people have questions.

Session 1 : DINOSAURS When were dinosaurs created? What
is a dinosaur? What happened to the dinosaurs? How are fossils
created? Are dating methods accurate?

Session 2 : DRAGONS Why doesn't the Bible mention dinosaurs?
Dragons are mentioned in the Bible. Dragons are part of
many cultures and legends. Could dragons be dinosaurs?

Session 3 : THE ARK Topics include: the size of the ark, the
animals, their stay on the ark, God’s judgment and covenant,
misconceptions about the ark.

Session 4 : PLANTS & ANIMALS Many different plants & animals
are discussed revealing some of their amazing attributes.
God designed them that way!

Session 5 : Q & A Questions kids have will be answered. Topics
include: Do aliens exist? Why do we look differently? What
about languages? What is evolution? Is all of the Bible true?

JandY Ministry’s mission in life is to glorify God, to teach God's truths and to equip others to do the same! "We stand on the absolute authority of God's Word without compromise and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

The Children’s Events are aimed at ages 6-12 take place from 9:00am-12:40pm and 2:00pm - 4:20pm. 

The Children’s Event area has room for a limited number of children at a time, so please follow instructions from conference staff for keeping group sizes appropriate for each session. Children are welcome to come at the beginning of a session that is of interest, or may join in later if they become restless and there is still room. 

Children 5 & under must be accompanied by an adult. Since the children’s program is held in a different part of the Conference Center, children 6 & up must be escorted by a parent or guardian to and from the Children’s Event area. You and your child will be given matching wrist bands,and children will only be released to the parent/guardian with the matching wrist band.

Activities include puppet shows, a fossil table, and balloon animals.
