On May 1, 2024, Frankfurt am Main will host the “Global Pastor Conference” under the theme “New Heaven, New Earth.” This event will bring together 130 pastors and church leaders from six countries, organized by the Zion Christian Mission Center. The goal is to discuss and develop innovative ways to renew and strengthen the global Christian community.
Addressing Global Church Challenges
In a time of change, with church congregations worldwide experiencing declining membership and increasing closures, the “Global Pastor Conference” offers a platform for exchanging proven methods and innovative solutions. The Zion Christian Mission Center, which has recorded considerable successes in revitalizing faith, aims to share its strategies to kickstart a broader movement for renewal.
International Networking and Cooperation
The initiative for this global movement began on April 20 in the Philippines, where more than 4,000 pastors and church leaders gathered at the Philippine International Convention Center. The event also attracted 90,000 online viewers, demonstrating strong international interest and engagement in this ecclesiastical movement.
The Contemporary Significance of Biblical Prophecies
Man-hee Lee, chairman of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, served as the keynote speaker, addressing the role and significance of fulfilling the Book of Revelation in our time. He emphasized the importance of understanding these prophecies to achieve the church’s spiritual goals.
Promoting Global Peace
Man-Hee Lee has significantly contributed to global peace efforts through his extensive travels and role in international peace negotiations. His efforts, especially in mediating a peace agreement on Mindanao, have solidified his reputation as a peacemaker.
Outlook for the Conference
The online Bible seminars initiated by Shincheonji in 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, led to numerous international educational and cooperation agreements. Given the already high registration numbers of over 28,818 pastors, 889 journalists, and 83,242 other participants, a conference rich in in-depth discussions and innovative approaches for the future direction of Christianity is expected.
