Register now for the 2011 International UMJC Conference, Break Through–Build Up! Coming to Dallas, July 14-17, our theme, based on Isaiah 57:14, will highlight breakthrough concepts and developments within the Messianic Jewish world that help us to build up our community for what lies ahead. [Just click the button below to register.]

We chose the Dallas Metroplex as our conference venue in part because of its great accessibility to all parts of the country and beyond. And Frisco, our host city just north of Dallas, has a lot to offer as a meeting destination:

New, fresh, clean and green (designated “tree City USA” by the national Arbor Day Foundation), Frisco is a city that shines.

Green Space:  Frisco’s parks and plazas provide a welcome break from meetings.  The Texas Sculpture Garden has 40 large-scale works by Texas and international artists. At Central Park, visitors walk, bicycle, and picnic amid native landscaping, cattle sculptures and waterfalls.

Frisco Square: The Historic Downtown District offers evidence of Frisco’s past as a railroad stop. Frisco square, the official town center, is a new development that mimics old-world charm with its narrow tree-lined streets and brick facades housing thoroughly modern eateries, a striking town hall, a farmers market and seasonal festivals.

So check out the conference hotel (and reserve your room) at http://embassysuites.hilton.com/en/es/groups/personalized/D/DALFSES-ESS-20110709/index.jhtml?WT.mc_id=POG

And remember, hotel rates include a free, full-service breakfast each morning.

To make this conference even more affordable, the schedule is shifted to include just three hotel nights instead of four, with minimal loss of time for programming. We’ll convene on Thursday evening and conclude on Sunday morning with an exciting focus on breakthroughs in Israel that are helping build up the Messianic community there.

Like every UMJC conference, Break Through–Build Up! features an outstanding roster of classes. Four educational tracks build on the conference theme:

1) Breaking through Barriers to Relationship (Spiritual Formation: Connecting)

2) Breaking through Barriers to Spiritual Growth (Spiritual Formation: Study)

3) Building Up through Personal & Congregational Development (Useful Tools to Take Home)

4) Building Up through Reaching Out (Ideas for Personal & Communal Outreach)

In addition, professional and volunteer leaders seeking Excellence in Ministry (continuing ed) credit, or just an intensive educational experience, can take an all-day course from Dr. Jeffrey Seif on ancient Messianic Judaism and its implications for today. Excellence in Ministry will continue Saturday afternoon with Dr. John Fischer and Dr. Daniel Juster and leading an introduction to Messianic Jewish theology. This class will be extended as an optional Madrikh (licensure) course after the conference, Sunday afternoon through Tuesday morning, available for credit under the Madrikh program, and MJTI.

Note to delegates: The annual business meeting opens Wednesday evening, July 13, and runs all day Thursday, July 14. The general conference begins Thursday evening.
