The Okoboji Bible Conference Ministries is a ministry located in Arnolds Park Iowa. The Conference is governed by a board of directors representing several different churches and is incorporated as an independent 501(c)3 non-profit. We delight to work with Christian churches of many styles and traditions. The Conference had its beginnings in the earliest days of The Christian and Missionary Alliance, at that time more a mission agency than a church. The Alliance has since become a denomination. We continue to enjoy a strong relationship with the Alliance, but no formal affiliation.
