Guest speakers and memorable points or quotes by speakers:
The Rev. Eli S. Yakku was among the guest speakers.
"The quadrennium theme of this holy conferencing, stressing on, 'Go and make faithful and fruitful disciples for the transformation of all nations,' is a command to the whole true believers embodied in the Lord Jesus who is the head of the church," he said.
"The church of Jesus Christ, which he brought with his precious blood, is no man's church. Therefore, as the church of Jesus Christ, we need to be faithful and fruitful stewards embodied in one body, one spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God, the Father of all, who is over all and through all and all."
