Conference Daily Overview

Thursday Afternoon

1:00 – 5:00 “Leadership by the Book”
An interactive seminar for those in leadership or called to leadership conducted by Scott Diffenderfer. Scott has led various organizations over the years in the corporate world and the spiritual realm. Currently serving as one of the leaders of LAMB Ministries in Tennessee and the MIA, Scott will offer unique insights into this vital topic. Topics to be explored are:

• Spiritual authority
• Applying the Matthew 18 model
• Conflict management
• Servant leadership
• Vision, mission, and goals

Along with this we will take an in-depth look at the Scriptural leadership models of King David, Moses, Deborah, and most importantly Y’shua ha Mashiach. We shall compare the Scriptural model of leadership with the worldly model of leadership. You will leave with hands on tools and new insights into, “Leadership by the Book.”

Registration for this seminar is free for those attending Ami Dodi but you need to sign up by August 1 to reserve your seat. Call 800.829.8777 or e-mail: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

Several dance and worship workshops will be taking place along with our annual “Q+A with the MIA Shepherds” seminar, which always proves to be enlightening.

11:00 – 1:00am Midnight Midrash
If you like a good debate this is for you! We will gather in a Salon on the 2nd floor to “study” topics that are on the hearts of His people today. This “study” will be similar to when the elders would sit in the city gate and debate a particular topic. Come prepared for a hearty discussion (or just to listen) on topics that will stimulate your thinking and challenge your traditions. There will be a group moderator to keep things focused and peaceful.

Saturday Morning

10:00 – 12:00 A Sabbath Celebration
Rabbi Rich Altom will lead our Sabbath Service in the main ballroom as several Shepherds and Teachers bring forth the Word in a Spirit of unity. Opening praise and worship will usher in the Ruach ha Kodesh as we gather to celebrate the Living Word – Y’shua ha Mashiach!

This is a faith affirming seminar!

2:00 – 5:00 Workshops
Our workshops will be focused on equipping His people, the Bride of Messiah, with knowledge and skill. You will leave these edifying seminars excited and equipped for impacting the world for the Kingdom. The difficult part is choosing which workshop to attend!

Saturday Evening

The theme this night will focus on the Bride preparing herself for, and awaiting the return of, her Beloved.

There will be opportunity for prayer, praise, and preparation on this special night for all of Israel.

11:00 – 1:00 “Late Night Coffee House”
Join several of our musical friends in a salon on the 2nd floor for a time of fellowship, worship, and chit chat with your friends.

Monday Afternoon

2:00 – 7:00 The Holy Land Experience
One day our international conference will be in Jerusalem but for now we can only “experience” our homeland. Join your friends in the MIA as we stroll the streets of Jerusalem right here in Orlando! The Holy Land Experience is a Biblically based theme park that offers a glimpse of life in Israel during the time of Y’shua and His disciples. Since we are all His disciples, let’s go relax and enjoy each other’s company at this attractive and entertaining theme park. The special group admission fee can be paid at the conference registration desk in Orlando.

Note: This is a partial and preliminary overview of Ami Dodi. The final agenda will be in your registration packets in Orlando.
