During the evening’s banquet, RCMA honored Jack Stone, district superintendent, Kentucky District, Church of the Nazarene, Hillview, Ky., with its President’s Award, which is given annually to an RCMA member who has rendered distinguished service to RCMA and the field of religious conference management. During an hour of fellowship prior to the banquet, Religious Conference Manager  Editor Larry Keltto took these photos of RCMA attendees. (Subjects in photos are identified from left to right.)
