So then you are no longer strangers, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
Ephesians 2:19-22
Overview
The CBF General Assembly is in the Heartland this year for the first time ever, and you’re invited. Join Cooperative Baptists at the Hyatt Regency at the Arch in St. Louis for a week of learning, worship, inspiration and fellowship!
In a year that feels more polarized than ever before, we want to be a place of belonging—where everyone is not just welcome to our table and in our communities but feel a deep sense of belonging in our Fellowship.
Together this summer, we will reflect on what radical hospitality can look like and explore the texts that call us to no longer be strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household.
In June, Cooperative Baptists can expect familiar favorites, as well as a few new features that bring us together in community and dive deep into learning together.
One familiar favorite of the event will be our lively exhibit hall called The Gathering Place, which is always a hub of activity. In The Gathering Place, event sponsors and exhibitors will interact with attendees, there will be parties in the aisles, podcast interviews will take place with notable guests, bookstores will be open for participants to peruse, and a CBF Global Missions market and art auction will be filled with items for purchase from around the world.
In St. Louis, The Gathering Place is in the center of the action—positioned in the heart of the conference center hallways right outside the worship and meal function rooms!
This year’s General Assembly is a moment for your business or organization to:
• Build awareness of your products, services and initiatives among a decision-making audience
