Experience has taught us that crises seldom resolve on their own. That’s precisely why we have created the Families in Crisis Conference. We would like to invite you to join Heartlight’s founder, Mark Gregston, for a three-day event that will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to guide your teenager back onto the right path.
Thursday – Saturday
December 5-7, 2024
Located at the beautiful Heartlight campus in Longview, Texas.
$325/person
$650/couple
This conference is designed specifically for the parents of struggling teens, not the teenagers themselves. While we strongly recommend both parents should attend if at all possible, we understand that’s not always possible and it is not required.
You’ll come away with a more complete understanding of the daily steps needed to influence real change in your home. And you’ll gain a renewed sense of power, purpose, energy and confidence in dealing with your teenager.

The 3-day training conference is taught and hosted by Mark Gregston, author, national radio host and the Founder of Heartlight Ministries. Several Heartlight counselors and staff will also participate and facilitate small group sessions throughout the weekend.
American Eagle is the only carrier that services Longview Airport (GGG). If you wish to fly into a larger airport serviced by most airlines, Shreveport, Louisiana (SHV) is located 40 miles east, Tyler, TX (TYR) airport is 40 miles west, or Dallas, Texas (DFW or DAL) is a 2-hour drive west of the Heartlight campus.
In order to receive negotiated room rates for our event, be sure to use the phone numbers listed, and ask for the Heartlight rate when reserving your room. The hotels highlighted on the map are in close proximity.
Feel free to come casual – Jeans, t-shirt, whatever you are comfortable in! The majority of the event is spent sitting in sessions with Mark or our counselors, so we recommend dressing comfortably.
Most people like to bring something they can take notes on. When you arrive, you’ll be given a workbook, a small notebook and pen, but feel free to bring whatever you prefer to use.
