In Matthew 28:19, Jesus calls us to make disciples of all nations. This summer, we have a unique opportunity, as all nations are coming to Kansas City! The World Cup is more than a global sporting event. It’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity for gospel impact right here in our backyard. As hundreds of thousands of visitors come to the Kansas City metro area, we want to be spiritually ready, strategically prepared, and unified as a church. Here are five ways we will respond:
PRAY
Seeking God’s guidance, protection, and gospel opportunities throughout the World Cup season.
WORSHIP
Spanish-language worship gatherings to serve neighbors and international guests.
SERVE
Stewarding our campus through hospitality, safety, and practical care for visitors.
GO
Sharing the gospel through intentional outreach across our community.
GIVE
Investing World Cup-related income into ministry and missions impact.
While details are still developing, we have provided what we know so far so you can begin praying and considering how you might help reach the nations. See information below.
