Conference Schedule/Damage Control Archive:
Since Spring Conference 2004 to Spring Conference 2014, 55%
of Conferences have been held at the Campground, and haven't been mandatory
since the "Fall" of 2006 (oops, Sorry...it's onerous keeping up with our 'cult-of-choice's flip-flops'; now one Conference per year is
mandatory). But, when the truth effects their "bottom line," and/or causes too
much hemorrhaging, and the routine inevitable panic grips them, Conference
shifts to Graham (one time in Phoenix), or goes regional, and becomes mandatory
again. Local church visits, from NTCC's leadership, are also used to frequently
put out the frequent fires.
Fall Conference/Seminar: TBD.
Spring Conference/Seminar: March 31 - April 3, 2014.
August 2013: Now Conferences are back on.
May 2013: Conference at the Cult's National Campground in Missouri has been cancelled until further notice.

Spring Conference/Seminar: April 15-18, 2013 (At Graham.) Stay tuned for details! No chance of using the BBQ Pavilion this Conference. Enjoy traveling to Graham once again, so the leadership isn't inconvenienced. And, since Graham isn't in the middle of nowhere, enjoy the work-day traffic, higher prices, and long lines to eat out.
Senior Leadership Visit: March 2013 (Rev. Kekel and Tanya visit NTCC's Servicemen's Home in...Hawaii.)
The "Pavilion" is turning into yet another underutilized/unnecessary (just as we predicted) real estate asset of the Cult. Just like the entire Nation Campground, Graham Education Center/Building, Senior Pastor Davis' Mansion, Senior Pastor Kekel's Mansion(s), Library, new Fellowship/Lecture Hall, the "built/completed in 1999" Graham Chapel, et cetera.
From Spring Conference 2004 to Fall Conference 2013, the Campground has only been used 55% of the time for its bi-annual Conferences. So in 10 years it has been used for 11 bi-annual Conferences. Another way to do the math is: From 2004 to present, the Campground has been used for 44 Conference days; or .8% of the amount of days in 10 years. Yet the Cult continues to pour 100's of 1000's of $'s of Church money into it for improvements/upkeep/overhead, and it always operates in the red. Still no group "retirement, life insurance, or health/dental/vision-care" plan for the faithful though. NTCC properties continue to look better and better on Google "Satellite View," just not so good on paper. And dismal when held up to the bright searing light of God's Holy Word. The Cult's "Good News" (Nary new content since 2011) continues to revolve around real estate/money/internet. No comparable static on the "Soul Saving," new "Church Locations," or new "Foreign Missions" front though; not even close. Note that after over 40 years, NTCC has only 3 Missionary Churches in only 2 countries.
Posted Wednesday, November 21, 2012 @ 3:00:00 PM…"Please forgive the delay in announcing the dates for the Spring Conference; we are currently in negotiations with the County to approve our Water/Septic System at the Campground; therefore unable to set a conference date."
Fall Conference/Seminar: October 1-4, 2012 (They still have "skits/workshops" during conference. They now have six volley-ball nets/courts set up where men and women can play with each other between the morning and evening services. The competition/fun was said to be pretty fierce along the wood line.)
Spring Conference/Seminar: April 23-26, 2012 (They still have "skits/workshops" during conference. The Pavilion and BBQ pit are operational, and used, during this Conference. You are also encouraged to..."Bring a boom-box! Or bring that 8' tall amplifier and guitar if you like." Wow. Don't forget to "Bring your stuff, your football, your BBQ, your camera or your guitar, (yes, even your banjo) and let's have a blast!...you can bring your own BBQ, smoker or grill, along with frisbees, musical instruments, coolers, whatever." Double WOW.
As of at least 6 February 2012, the long standing, and beneficial institution that was Fellowship Meeting is no more.

To read why Senior Pastor Kekel's justifications are merely more of his routine self-serving damage-control bunk, click here.
Fall Conference/Seminar: September 12-15, 2011 (They still have "skits/workshops" during Conference, but the "free food during fellowship" was discontinued after one Conference.)
Spring Conference/Seminar: April 4-7, 2011 (At Graham.) ("Free food during fellowship" is launched, and they now have "skits/workshops" during conference.)
Fall Conference: September 27-30, 2010 (Don & Ange's Blog starts in August. Senior Pastor Kekel claims there are 1,000 in Conference. Yet, Bro. Bellamy reports "...why was Fall Conference 2010 only half full on the men's side? There were more women and kids than there were of men." Also, if 1,000 is the true attendance at a conference in Missouri, there wouldn't be enough room for a Conference in Graham [where more people would go, since they are there already]...yet they have them there.)
Fall Conference: September 25-28, 2006 (Curt's Blog starts in November.)
Spring Conference: May 1-4, 2006 (The Wikipedia Article starts in March; Tracy's Blog starts in June; ntccXposed starts in June; Pastor Kekel's CEO Blog starts in July.)

Spring Conference: February 16-19, 2004 (In Phoenix; Rev. Denis had just left in 2003—and did not leave quietly—2004 is the same year NTCC began to be discussed on FACTNet; note how early this 'Spring' Conference was. This Conference was definitely a weirder-than-usual one. Deb sung a "special" song honoring and praising Senior Pastor Davis. Rev. Jordon made his now famous "God blinded Pastor" pronouncement. Rev. Olson presented Senior Pastor Davis with a binder containing hand written notes from the faithful, pledging our love and loyalty. There was even instruction for submitting the notes. They could only be a certain dimension, and it was an odd size. I remember having to cut a standard piece of paper down. We were forbidden by Rev. Olson to even ask Senior Pastor Davis to look at the binder. After the Special Service, we all filed by where Senior Pastor Davis was enthroned in the basement, to get a piece of cake from his table, and lavish him with praise. If he had a ring, people probably would have kissed it. I know I would have, since I always did what policy required. There was more strangeness, but these are just some highlights.)

Spring Conference: June 25-28, 2007 (In 2007, Conferences stopped being mandatory after 28 years, so we didn't go to this one. We were still in Korea, and saving a lot of money by not going to the now non-mandatory Conferences.)

1-You're not working enough.
2-You don't have enough people.
3-You're a loser.
4-If you don't like it, GET OUT.
At least one minister has resigned between the Thursday AM and PM services, and others are on the brink of leaving in utter frustration.

Before NTCC was featured on the internet, everything was mandatory, the leadership didn't make nice, NTCC was growing, and those that did their own thing hid it (Including Rev. Kekel; according to Sis. Kekel, this is why their first mansion was built away from the compound; now that Grant is in a regionally accredited Secular College, they have built their second mansion, this time on the compound, and are living there once again.), since 'policy' was still iron clad rule.

where is the campground?
The Campground is in Missouri.
Make sure you read the true story too =D Click on web-page link to view satellite image or once on that page load the map.
Near Mexico Missouri
chicken, why don't you turn it off, don't u blast other for having it on?
I'm so glad Spring is here. The Lord is blessing us here in Portland, OR. I won't be able to break away for the Spring Conference in Missouri, unless I am requested to preach, if they want true revival. The fullness of the Outpouring of the Spirit is intense here! Come one, come all to Portland!
So, DD, interesting.
You made ref. to have messages of the past, you have one about "what constitudes(SP) holiness? Or "the power of a vision" If I send you an e-mail, could you, would you zip it to me?
I also remember hearing one, "crushed by the rock", by you
Thanks,

You live in Portland? My favorite city on the planet! Next to the one I live in of course, although it's really more of a town than a city :)

look here for messages I would preach at Spring Conference!
OH! i FORGOT! i was goIng to say, when they take up that really HUGE offerIng at the campground durIng the fInal - feel-good - servIce on the last nIght, all the men should just reach real deep In theIr wallets, pull out that most valuable card, and
DROP THEiR UNACCREDiTED MiNiSTER'S LiCENSE iNTO THE OFFERiNG
BUCKET
WHiCH iS WHAT THEY WiLL USE TO TAKE UP YOUR TiTHES AND OFFERiNGS AT THE CAMPGROUND; SiNCE WE ALL KNOW
BUCKETS ARE MORE SPiRiTUAL SiNCE THEY DEFiNiTELY DO HOLD MORE!!
SO DON'T FORGET. DROP iN THAT UNACCREDiTED MiNiSTER'S LiCENSE AT YOUR NEXT CULT MEETiNG. YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DiD!
AND SO WiLL YOUR UNDER-AGE BUT STiLL MARRiABLE DAUGHTER. SHE WiLL SiGH A HUGE SiGH OF RELiEF THAT SHE MAY BECOME A WOMAN BEFORE YOU THROW HER TO THE kUckle - type WOLVES (S)iN THE ntcc...
Look folks on Mike K. blog. He is getting his mind runned robots to agree with him.
if they did not agree with him. They would get,well your just not saved in the first place. or you got a heart problem. Your just twisted up with God. SO ON and So FORTH!
IF they did not agree that would stir the waters up. And bring that spotlight on them. Everyone while in ntcc avoids that spotlight. then your used as an example over the pulpit. Fresh meat for them to preach about and BASH!
Nothing changes unless Mike K. says so. If he does it,then it is OK. God must have told him,so he is now telling me it is OK. for sports,different music,secular college,TV for church members but not the ministers. ON and ON! For those wanting a TV,make-up,jewlery for the ladies. Just wait,If Tanya wants it then the other ladies get it. French fake nails,hair piece's,slinky shoes,choking scrafs,tight skirts and tight blazers. It is all fine for them. ONLY THEN,is it ok for the mass's in ntcc!
April,
You know, with all that money available to her, why does Tanya Kekel insist on wearing tight clothing and see-through outfits like the one in the Who Dat / Teenya Sheckle photos?
It's one thing for a struggling bible school student to sort through the racks at a kook store in order to come up with an outfit that is appropriate by ntcc standards.
But Tanya, a woman with virtually unlimited resources, dresses contrary to the very holiness doctrine that her father and husband preach? It makes no sense. I guess holiness just is not in her heart.
But covetousness seems to manifest itself in that heart. How much do you really need? Or is it greed that drives you?
Just doesn't seem very "holy" at all.
Ahhhh, ntcc conference at the campground. I used to look forward to those meetings. I don't think they should be called camp meetings though; perhaps humiliation meetings. This would be the time that all the big guns would come out. Rwd would love to take this opportunity to blast people for things that weren't even a sin.
There was something very wrong with the whole set up over there. I remember the first time I went to the restroom over there; I thought it was unfinished. No stalls, No dividers; just walls, fixtures and drains. Then I found out through the preaching of rwd that this was the finished product. This was being done for "humility". I used to try to time my bowel movements after the midnight hour so I wouldn't have to fight for a stool or could see and smell everyone's business.
The closest thing I ever seen to a bathroom with a shower facility that wide open was a truck stop in New Jersey, but even that had dividers that were neck high separating the stools.
I can't figure this one out; someone please help me. Why would you want to preach holiness to someone and then send them into what seemed like a homosexual bath house? They had bath houses in Korea that were full of naked guys doing who knows what, but it just didn't seem like an environment that was conducive to the military lifestyle so the military leadership did what? Made them off limits establishments. They did the right thing.
The only reason that I can guess that ntcc would promote this type of environment is because the money it would take to make these facilities appropriate is enough money to pay for one semester of the kekel kid's secular prep school, or one trip to Disney world, or maybe kekel wanted to sneak off to the annual bluegrass festival.
All of the above are much more important than the 2 or 3 thousand bucks it would cost to make the restroom facilities appropriate at the campground.
I used to be afraid to ask questions. I am no longer afraid of these people because they are not right with God. I am referring to the majority of the leadership here, not every one in the org. Please, ntcc'rs, look at what these cult leaders are doing to you and expecting of you. Do you really think this is God?
Too bad I will not be there, think I am in charge of a funeral or something

Don and Ange said,
I give up, is she wearing makeup now? Perhaps a little wrinkle cream?
Is it all right if we wear our BDU's to the lizard conference?
Today is the big money day. After everyone has been plowed for everything you can imagine, it's time to dig deep into our pockets and consider the souls that we will be helping by giving in tonights offering. Well lets see.... I wonder how much will go into the gk education fund, or if the missionary's that are struggling to make ends meet on foreign soil will ever see a dime.
They ought to take up a collection tonight for the reconstruction of destroyed family relationships, but not sure if money can solve that problem.

Just filling in the blank . . . . the Phoenix conference was rapidly scheduled and held there due to the split - after Dennis stood up against Davis he wanted a conference to "Inform" all that were left what was going on, to make sure those that were still with NTCC were still loyal to HIM, etc. I know. . . . I was part of the "Folks" that had some knowledge and planning with this. I thought I was something to be a part then. I'm so glad now I'm not. This was a bashing party and he used that to morale his leftover minions.
Choice of Phx - he wanted something where those who left wouldn't be around to attend.
Thanks for your insight K. I was at this conference. And looking back it was definitely a weirder-than-usual one.
Deb sung a "special" song honoring and praising Senior Pastor Davis. Rev. Jordon made his now famous "God blinded Pastor" pronouncement.
Rev. Olson presented Senior Pastor Davis with a binder containing hand written notes from the faithful, pledging our love and loyalty. There was even instruction for submitting the notes. They could only be a certain dimension, and it was an odd size. I remember having to cut a standard piece of paper down. We were forbidden by Rev.

They ought to be wrapping things up in Graham today. There will be one more push for World Missions and heart strings will be tugged upon as people dig deep into thier wallets to fulfil the burden that has been placed upon their hearts. What will Joe and Sally Conference Attender have to look forward to? They get to drive across country in their oil puking junkers to hopefully make it back to their congregations in time for the next service so they can regale their church members with tales of great and firey sermons preached; well thought out and crafty skits performed in theatricle fashion and the fun times they had chasing Frisbees, diving for volleyballs and singing kumbayah around the fellowship hall. If only the rest of thier congregation had enough God to make that trip..... that's okay, because we have next years conference to look forward to. Hopefully they will get some use out of the pavillion that the tithe payers purchased under the guise of giving for the lost. I wonder if the cult compound in Graham will become an amusement park of sorts so that conference attendies can really appreciate where their tithe dollars are going. They can have the Verna Davis memorial roller coaster and the R-Dub memorial Log ride. Not trying to expedite anyones departure from this world, knowing that to die is gain. Besides, other memorials have been errected prior to the the death of those honored.
Apperently there willbe no Fall Conference this year. Also, it is now mandatory for ministers and students to attend ONE conference each year.
dead blog, go to truestories or NTCCEXERS
Any word on how Conference April 15 is going? I'd love to know that they've lost huge portions of the flock!!!
I'm sure Ashmore is a huge part of the preaching.
