About GA 2026

 

The 2026 General Assembly will be a virtual experience with optional opportunities for community gatherings. In addition to the Studio Site in Louisville, Kentucky, several regional Satellite Sites will offer in person ways to participate and connect. Congregations are encouraged to host local gatherings or watch parties as well. Whether joining from a congregation, a Satellite Site, or from home, everyone will share in the same inspiring content and the spirit of connection that brings our movement together everywhere.

The dates are June 14–21, 2026, and the structure will look a little different.

  • Sunday through Tuesday (June 14–16): All-virtual General Sessions focused on the business of the Association.
  • Wednesday and Thursday (June 17–18): A flexible midweek break for rest, travel, professional organization meetings, and affinity groups gatherings.
  • Friday through Sunday (June 19–21): Whether participating at an optional in-person site or fully online, registrants will share in the same livestreamed worship, featured speakers, and “Meet the Moment” programming that will unite us across every location.

GA is designed to be flexible, accessible, and meaningful for all participants.
