Summersville Baptist Church in Mt. Vernon is hosting an Ignite Evangelism Conference from April 30-May 1, featuring John Reed, President of Georgia Baptist Evangelists, and Scott Harris, IBSA Mission Team Leader and Director of Evangelism.
IBSA Church Planting Director Kevin Jones will help lead breakout sessions.
Harris said the conference will “focus on calling out the church to pray for the lost and asking the Spirit of God to help them make an impact for the Gospel.”
The free event will start Sunday at 6 p.m. with a worship rally and inspiration in evangelism. Monday morning sessions begin at 8 a.m. and are designed to equip participants and their churches for effective evangelism. The event will end with a grab-and-go boxed lunch at noon.
While Ignite is free, advance registration is preferred. Future locations include Bethalto, Chicago, Jacksonville, and Marion. A Hispanic Ignite Conference is also being planned. Visit IBSA.org/evangelism for more details and to register.
