GC21 – Orlando Florida
Adherents from the U.S. Assemblies of God met at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, August 3-6 for the Fellowship’s 59th General Council.
The General Council is the biennial business meeting for the church, which is part of the largest Pentecostal denomination in the world, with over 69 million members. There are more than 3 million adherents in the U.S.
Business sessions at which delegates elect officers, hear reports of church ministries and adopt resolutions began at 8:30 a.m. (Eastern) Thursday, Aug. 5, and continued through Friday, Aug. 6. Delegates are comprised of licensed and ordained AG ministers who are present and registered for the convention. In addition, every General Council congregation may send one delegate to participate in business sessions.
Doug Clay, general superintendent of the U.S. Assemblies of God, delivered the keynote address at the first service of the General Council on Wednesday evening. Other highlights include J.J. Vasquez who spoke on Friday evening, with a Night of Miracles prayer service Thursday evening.
Even before the biennial gathering officially opened Wednesday night (Aug. 4), attendees met for pre-General Council sessions and a leadership conference that began Tuesday, Aug. 3. General sessions speakers for the two-day Influence Conference included Greg Ford, pastor of One Church in Columbus, Ohio, plus Aaron Burke, pastor of Radiant Church in Tampa, Florida.
Students, parents, and sponsors participated in the National Youth Convention at the Orange County Convention Center. Youth were involved in numerous activities, including National Fine Arts Festival, community outreach, and nightly services. The week culminated with the Fine Arts presentations and awards, Friday, Aug. 6, beginning at 7:00 p.m.
