Event Navigation
Join us for General Assembly 2024!
Humanity was created for relationship with God, a relationship that transforms every area of life and deepens as we learn to know our Creator. Out of this formation, we follow him to love the world and share the redemption he offers. This year’s theme – Formed to Follow – invites us to embrace our identity as disciples created to follow God.
This page is your home for all things General Assembly, so check back frequently as we make updates.
