2020 BCEC Missions Conference- English Program (Virtual)
Jesus’ main message during His earthly ministry was about the Kingdom of God. What does this mean for us now? How should we respond to the new missional landscape, generational shifts, and cultural changes? How can we continue to bear fruit during this uncertain time and stressed out environment?
Join us and listen to messages from our global partners and speakers on the weekend of November 13-15.
