The 32nd World General Assembly at the All Nation Center on Jeju Island in Korea brought together Christian leaders, ministers, and missionaries from around the globe, creating a space for deep reflection, renewed commitment, and collective vision. As ministers from the USA joined this gathering, they encountered profound moments of unity, inspiration, and spiritual insight. In this article, we share reflections from USA ministers who attended, capturing their perspectives on the messages, the fellowship, and the purpose that marked this memorable assembly.
Pastor Mark Spisak in Saint Louis, Missouri :
“Very thankful to God for allowing me to join 32nd WGA and see our beautiful All Nations Center in Jeju Island. It open for me new horizon to imagine how the World Mission will develop with this training hub in Jeju island that creates the opportunity for members from various parts of the world to come and grow their skills and knowledge to serve gospel of Jesus Christ more. This year World General Assembly strengthened and inspired me to go with new vision and strive to enlarge God’s kingdom in position where I serve in United States.”
Pastor Andrew Lin in Los Angeles, California:
“One of the most memorable aspects of the assembly was the serendipitous meetings with members at different times and places. Through these chance encounters, we could have important conversations, share wisdom, and hear about one another’s situations. The Holy Spirit’s work was strongly felt, facilitating these precious meetings of faith throughout the assembly. We are grateful to have been part of such a historic gathering and hope that it will bear much fruit in the days and weeks to come.”
Pastor Anthony Chiu in Saint Louis, Missouri:
“Attending the WGA and witnessing so many nations and ethnicities represented made me feel that we are moving one step closer to fulfilling the Great Commission. I am in awe of how God has brought together His faithful servants from different parts of the world, and even though we gathered for a short time, it felt as if we had known each other for years. Our meetings and collaborations flowed effortlessly, marked by a beautiful sense of unity and agreement.
I was deeply encouraged and strengthened by seeing the emergence and growth of new leaders from around the globe. During this time, I felt the Lord stirring in me even greater dreams for the U.S. mission, envisioning how it could be ignited by the Holy Spirit and experience revival in this present moment, contributing powerfully to the global mission. I believe that if the U.S. rises and new leaders are firmly established, the work of spreading the gospel to the world can advance even more swiftly and effectively.”
Pastor Eugene Duckworth in Chicago, Illinois:
“Reflecting on the WGA, I was deeply touched to see how the Holy Spirit worked through ministers from all nations, where many could truly experience the grace of God. While the many lectures from leaders provided much guidance on the mission, it was especially moving to witness the great works displayed through the fellowships and churches located around the world. Looking back on the WGA, I realize the preparations must not have been easy in such a short amount of time. It was clear that members’ sacrifice and love were poured into making it a success.”
Pastor Samuel Kim in Washington D.C. :
“I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to attend the 32nd World Gospel Assembly in Jeju Island. While I arrived with high expectations for the event, given the blessing of our mission center, I left with a renewed perspective and expanded vision. Witnessing passionate individuals from diverse nations gather to be equipped and dispatched for global missions was truly inspiring. This experience has ignited a new sense of purpose within me.”
Pastor Michael Ford in Trenton, New Jersey:
“WGA was really joyful. I was most happy when I heard the word expounded, and I saw the works of faith in the lives of the 2nd generation, my main take away is to make faith my first and last resort. Without faith, life is hopeless. It’s no coincidence that death is hopeless as well. Without faith we are as good as dead. The people we are seeking are lost from the lord, without faith. They are as good as dead. So I hope my life, my true life in Christ can shine brighten so they receive that same gift.”
