Los Angeles, CA (February 10, 2015) ---- Jimmy Peña, New York Times best-selling author, exercise physiologist and founder of PrayFit Ministries, announces today the first annual PrayFit RISE Conference in Los Angeles, CA, April 11th. With special musical guest Brenton Brown, the event will feature ten guest speakers that include Peña, Shawn Thornton, Lauren DeMoss, Dana White (TheFoodNetwork.com), Matt Brown (Think Eternity), David Martin (I AM SECOND students), with Scotty Smith from Christ Community Church in Nashville, TN delivering the keynote address.
Tickets for the event are available online at www.prayfitrise.org and ticket prices are $33.00 for adults and $25.00 for students for all conference events. PrayFit RISE will take place at Calvary Community Church, 5495 Via Rocas, West Lake Village, CA, and will give everyone of all ages the opportunity to celebrate grace, while learning to live a healthier, humble, service-driven, grace-filled life.
"We want to bring a fun-filled, challenging, and inspiring event to Los Angeles that could involve the whole family," explains Peña. "Taking care of our health is just one way to thank God for only seeing our hearts, and when we look at health through the gospel's lens, it changes everything. You don't want to miss it. This is the first conference of its kind, and we plan to grow the concept into annual national events in key cities across the country."
Sponsored in part by Pepperdine University, PrayFit RISE will be a full-day event (continental breakfast and lunch options included in ticket price) that offers several breakout sessions in the morning and afternoon with such topics as "Modesty In A Selfie Industry" with Lauren DeMoss, "Renewing Your Mind" with Brooke Boon, and "LOVE > fear" with Alisa Keeton. There will also be sessions that deal with hurts, illness and hope, along with book signings, panel discussions and dinner with the speakers (special ticket needed for the dinner).
