ORDINARY PEOPLE WITH AN EXTRAORDINARY STORY
May 13 - 14, 2022
Burke Community Church
Do you believe ordinary people have the power to change the world? Do you believe everyday people led by an extraordinary God with a story to share can lead individuals, homes, and entire communities to a life-giving faith? Jesus believed this. And so should we.
GO 2022 is a conference dedicated to inspiring and equipping ordinary people to share their stories and their faith. It’s about kick-starting a gospel movement at the grassroots level. It’s about coming together to build each other up by sharing about what God is doing in and through our ordinary lives.
