I’ve spoken with leaders from many GACX members over the last several months — phone, video calls, and face-to-face. These conversations have left me ever more amazed at all the God is doing around the world.
In January 2017, thirty-three leaders of Cru’s Global Church Movements (GCM) from 22 countries of Africa and the Middle East gathered in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
The leadership of GACX, a global alliance for church multiplication, and the Global Church Planting Network (GCPN) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on intentional collaboration.
Since 2005 God has allowed the Global Proclamation Academy (GPA) to bring 25 younger pastoral leaders to Dallas for a three-week program designed to connect, unite and strengthen the finest, younger lead pastors of Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America.
“Intentional collaboration” is a term of art within GACX. The coordination, alignment, and partnership necessary to push forward the 5-million church vision cannot be left to happenstance or afterthought.
The GACX board of directors has appointed Nate Vander Stelt as Executive Vice President.
Why do you think Jesus taught his disciples to pray, “Our Father in heaven…Your kingdom come?” What do you think we are saying whenever we pray this prayer?
GACX views prayer as an indispensable action in our mission to see one healthy, multiplying church for every 1000 people worldwide. That’s why every GACX member is encouraged to identify and appoint a “prayer igniter” within their organization.
Eighty-one leaders, prayer coordinators, and intercessors from 38 different organizations gathered in Orlando last month for GACX’s inaugural Ignition Prayer Summit.
The European Forum for Church Multiplication (ECFX) is a regional branch of GACX, pursuing a contextualized vision to see one healthy, multiplying church for every 1,000 people on this “post-Christian” continent.
“Kingdom Come” is GACX’s 2017 theme — for both the upcoming Global Forum in October as well as a common thread woven throughout our thoughts and actions during this trip around the sun.
“A bunch of weirdos.” That’s how one of the 150-some leaders described the group which met together last month in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
I landed in Accra, Ghana last month for the Every Home for Christ (EHC) Africa Conference.
“Together Now” is the theme for the GACX Forum 2016. We have chosen these two words to capture what we will be doing. I believe they capture both God’s heart and priority.
On February 7, 2014, my family and I boarded a plane to Kenya with heavy hearts. We had just heard that Abdi Welli Ahmed, our dear Somali brother and partner in ministry, had been shot dead earlier that day.
