They don't live stream the services. They sell the DVDs, but no live stream. It'd be great if they did though.

how many attend?

I am not sure. I believe their sanctuary holds around 3,000 people and then they have some overflow rooms with video feeds. Keep in mind most ministers attending have their wife with them so probably around 1500-2000 or so preachers there plus wives.

Unless things have changed it is the largest preachers conference in the UPC.

Re: Because Of the Times 2016

You would think they'd rent a bigger place to hold it each year
since so many want to come and get locked out after the limit
has been reached.

I guess no live webcast of BOTT this year? I don't see anything at the POA website.

My brother is there. He just face timed me for a minute during the service.

Really happy he could go this year. I went for several years in the 90s. Hopefully I'll be going next year.
