2026 Reformation Heritage Conference

The Reformation of Worship Each year, Wayside Presbyterian Church (PCA) sets aside a weekend to focus on our Reformed heritage, stemming from the Protestant Reformation (and post-Reformation) of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The sessions presented are meant for every-day Christians, to encourage a love for God's Word, to foster an appreciation for those who have gone before us, and to cultivate a joy in God through the Lord Jesus Christ. This year, we are pleased to welcome speakers Fred Greco, Richard Phillips, Chris Larson, Derrick Brite, and Brian Cosby looking at the theme of "The Reformation of Worship."
