The global mission event of the century is only a week away! Its the Third Lausanne World Congress on World Evangelization also known as Lausanne 3.
Its HUGE!. We’re talking 5000 invited delegates from all over the world.
Its bigger than Lausanne 1 and even bigger than Lausanne 2.
Its bigger than Edinburgh 1910 and 2010
Its the most wired, webbed, blogged, twittered, streamed missions event EVER!
Its also more SOUTHERLY than any missions conference you have ever followed. It happens in Cape Town, South Africa and it starts next week. Like Oct 16 – 25th
Its time to point your computer towards Cape Town for a MEGA MISSION RUSH that’s going to:
TURN your tiny view of the global church upside down!
SMASH your small ambitions into pathetic, wriggling inadequacies!
REAWAKEN your inner William Carey into the 21st Century!
REPOSITION your priorities into the groove of what God is doing NOW in the world that He loves!
