Equipping Leaders to Build Healthy, Multiplying Churches

FORWARD is our regional gathering, designed to help you, your leaders and church to be stronger, healthier and more impactful. 


This year, we are not only celebrating the past year during our general business meeting, we are also having breakout sessions that will empower you and your team to move forward with clarity, confidence and conviction.


God has not called you to maintain, He has empowered you to move His kingdom foward! 


I can't wait to see you at the conference!
