Conference Theme

The theme for this year's Church Leaders Conference is "Celebrating the Past, Anticipating the Future." Not only will we be looking back at what God has done in the past ten years on the continent, but we'll also be looking ahead in anticipation of what the future may hold.

One tool for helping us do this was the Appreciative Inquiry that was held earlier this year in each of our ministry locations. A summary of the Appreciative Inquiry findings and aspiration statements will be presented at the conference.

Let's Celebrate!

In 2009, we celebrate the ten-year anniversary of the first FMC planted on the continent of Europe! We celebrate what God has done and the key leaders who have helped pioneer this decade of beginnings on the continent. Won't you make plans now to join us in this celebration at the Church Leaders Conference in November?

We are happy to announce that we will have three very special guests at the conference who were instrumental in helping to get the work in Europe started. They are Bishop Emeritus Gerald Bates, Rev. Clancy Thompson, and Stephanie LeVan. They will join with us in celebration of what God has done, and in praying for God's continued blessing in the future.

New Location for 2009!

We are happy to announce a new conference location for the 2009 Church Leaders Conference! This year the conference will be held at Hotel Ibis - Váci út in central Budapest. Excellent public transportation is available in the neighborhood, with quick and easy access to the most popular tourist areas.
