Greetings,
Registration is now open for our Third Annual Conference on 1689 Ecclesiology—and you won’t want to miss it.
On August 11–13, 2026, the 3535 Foundation will host this year’s conference in Fargo, North Dakota. Our 2026 theme centers on the life and theology of John Owen.
This year’s lectures will trace the influences that led Owen from Presbyterianism to become a defining voice in Congregationalism. We will also explore his profound impact on leading Baptistic Congregationalists and the development of 1689 ecclesiology.
Our speakers include:
• Crawford Gribben
• Martyn Cowan
• James Renihan
• Zach McCullen
• Matthew Bingham
• Noah Bailey
Early registration is now open, and we have reserved a block of rooms at SpringHill Suites by Marriott Fargo for your convenience.
For details and registration, visit 3535foundation.com.
Join us in Fargo this August as we revisit the ecclesiastical debates that helped shape 1689 ecclesiology and the ongoing reformation of Christ’s Church. We look forward to seeing you August 11–13.
For Christ and His Church,
Douglas VanderMeulen
President of 3535 Foundation
