Pastor Matt & Heather Bell (SA) / Pastor Mike & Jennifer Bell (FBG)
We are overjoyed to invite you to our 62nd annual world missions conference!
Christ is the ruler of the kings of the earth (Rev. 1:5). He is building His kingdom all over the world today. He is gathering a people for Himself from every nation, tribe, and tongue. The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ (Rev. 11:15). He has commissioned us to proclaim His gospel and disciple the nations.
The theme for this year's conference is
REFORMATION & REVIVAL.
We need reformation - a rediscovery of the Word of God.
We need revival - an outpouring of the Spirit of God.
Gather with us as we celebrate our risen Lord and the work He is doing in us and through us in the nations.
Let's believe God for REFORMATION & REVIVAL.
