November 7-9 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
We love Pastors & Leaders.
This is a gathering for you and by you. It would be easy to call it a conference, but that sounds so transactional. We are going to dive deep into the practice of building the local church, but this is so much more than information transfer.
This is an opportunity to build meaningful and long lasting ministry relationships. Leave your ministry score card and stat sheet at home and come to grow in every facet of your leadership.
To help us move into our callings, we are bringing the best of the best.
This year... we are putting our money where our mouth is.
Registration is free, because we believe every pastor, leader and team needs to in the room for this gathering of national significance.
Pastor Russell Johnson from The Pursuit Church is locked and loaded. He is building a church in Seattle, which is in the midst of Revival. Reaching those long considered unreachable and building a church that prioritizes the presence of God. Much like our Pastors Gathering, The Pursuit is a place where anyone can belong, everyone can contribute, and anything can happen.
We believe in doing life and ministry together... so we are partnering with Voice of Revival and Sammy Robinson to create one gathering that we believe will change the direction of your life and ministry.

Our Guest
Russell
Johnson
Born and raised in Seattle, Pastor Russell Johnson has always felt that God has something special for him to do in the Northwest. He never imagined it would look like planting a church.
He spent the first part of his adult-life working in politics, but God had other plans. In the summer of 2014, he and his wife Marija stepped out in faith to start The Pursuit. The name really captures their heart. They’ve made a decision to live intentionally passionate lives, pursuing the presence of God.
Their church started in a barn with no indoor plumbing, no heat, and broken windows. But God was up to something. In 2018, they purchased a former department store building and began a full-scale remodel, converting the space into a multi-use church, preschool/childcare facility, and outreach center where they see God do incredible things week after week.
They have always valued the power of teamwork and wouldn’t be here today without the sacrifice of so many amazing people.
The Pursuit is a place where anyone can belong, everyone can contribute, and anything can happen. Every day Pastor Russ feels fortunate just to be a part of this story.
