The 2023 Center for Missions and Evangelism National Conference
October 6-7 | Bethel Church, Lansing, Illinois
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! - Psalm 96:3
Throughout the ages, the church has experienced adversity in various forms. Opposition to the gospel is nothing new. But the grace of God never buckles under pressure and because of God’s grace, the church can be faithful to its mission—the Great Commission.
This year, our 2023 National Conference, Beyond the Walls, will bring encouragement to church leaders and lay people alike by focusing on what it looks like to do faithfully reformed, outward facing ministry in an age of adversity. Our speakers will address crucial topics that speak to the mission and identity of the church in a world full of darkness and confusion. Only the gospel of Jesus Christ offers any meaningful hope; and through God’s Word and Spirit, the Church continues to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
Join us at Bethel Church from October 6-7 in Lansing, Illinois as we seek to grow and learn together.
This event is in-person only, and will not be livestreamed.
Childcare will be provided for kids ages 0-4 during the main plenary sessions.

Mid-America Reformed Seminary invites ministry partners who agree with our doctrinal statement and the Center for Mission & Evangelism’s identity statements to contact the Seminary’s Vice-President of Advancement, Michael Deckinga, to express your interest in being an exhibitor.
