It's time to reap! Launched in 1991, in response to the fall of communism in Eastern Europe and the subsequent collapse of the Soviet Union, Advocates International is a work in progress. It puts in practice the strategy of Jesus whose chosen method was the formation of small bands of committed friends. He inspired them with a sense of His Spirit and vision to build their lives into an intensive fellowship of affection, worship and work. Fast forward to 2008, where there are now 100 active or emerging Christian lawyer groups among the 158 nations linked through eight regional networks. Four Global Convocations and 32 Regional Conferences since 1998 have been instrumental in broadening and strengthening a unique global movement committed to doing justice with compassion.
The 2008 Global Convocation is designed to encourage and enable advocates to meet locally, organize nationally, cooperate regionally and link globally to promote justice, rule of law, religious freedom, reconciliation and integrity.
As part of the host team (Advocates North America), we invite you to be part of a historic event! The international program, which involves country representatives meeting by region, begins on October 6. The North American component begins on October 9. The program promises to be superb; the speakers first-class! We hope to see as many as 1,500 delegates from 150 nations at the largest-ever gathering of Christian lawyers and law students. The relationships you build may last a lifetime. It could be life changing for you and Advocates International's global delegates, with the potential to have a long-term impact on nations around the world. Join us either for the entire week (Oct 6-12) or the long weekend (Oct 9-12). Additionally, please pray about helping sponsor a delegate from any one of dozens of countries.
It will be a reverse mission’s trip! Instead of going overseas and having a short-term impact in one country, take a short-term mission trip and spend a week in Washington, DC, where you will meet committed followers of Christ from up to 150 nations. You have the opportunity to participate in a historic gathering of Christian advocates and attend regional seminars hosted by leaders from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and North America.
Join us as we eagerly anticipate the chance to watch God at work all over the world!
Online registration not available. Invitation by CLF required. Space is Limited.
