Our General Sessions are designed to affirm, encourage, and motivate you in
the calling God has placed on your life. From our Opening Night to the Closing
Session our focus is you, serving you and meeting your needs.
H. Norman Wright, Dave and Claudia Arp, and Gary and Barbara Rosberg fill three
of the five facilitating roles in the General Session. The Lord
has also brought us a special Praise and Worship Team to minister
with our speakers during all of the general sessions.
