Conference Goals
    The goals of the 2019 General Assembly (GA) are two-phase: immediate (within the first
    month after the assembly), and one year after the event.

    In November 2019: Immediately after the GA, participants will:

    1.      Experience a shift in mindset to understand and embrace the missional landscape
            over the decade to come.
    2.      Have a unified goal for the next decade and clear direction as a global alliance,
            launching a new era of holistic disciple-making initiatives.
    3.      Have a strategic on-the-ground local action plan developed by and with younger
            leaders that reflect passion and intentionality to implement the new mindset of disci-
            ple-making.
    4.      Be inspired and energized to execute the dramatic actions and efforts required
            across regions, commissions, networks and other spheres of influence to successfully
            achieve the goals.

    November 2020: One year after the GA, the Global Church will witness:

    1.      WEA leaders at the global, regional and national level championing a new era (dec-
            ade) of disciple making.
            n Across regions, commissions, networks and local ministries, there are documented
                working models of effective holistic disciple making.
            n Across regions, commissions, networks and local ministries, there are mission
                breakthroughs as a result of the global mindset shift to united, intergenerational
                and holistic disciple-making.
    2.      WEA is emerging as the leading force of intergenerational discipleship in the glob-
            al church.
    3.      Younger WEA leaders are emerging from their spheres of ministry as active and em-
            powered implementers of the WEA vision.
    4.      Elder WEA leaders are actively guiding, modeling and mentoring the next generation
            of emerging leaders, effectively ushering them in the new season of leadership for the
            global alliance.

Conference Design
The WEA General Assembly is more than a one-time event, but is part of a longer process.
The event will launch a unifying journey of discerning the missional landscape for disci-
ple-making and define clearly our leadership mandate to fulfill the Great Commission in our
generation and the next.

CONFERENCE HIGHLIGHTS

nn        The THOUGHT PROCESS
          Prior to the General Assembly, a series of ‘Study Groups’ within the WEA will be
          convened between April and and November 2019, to lead the global reflection
          and discernment process. The output of these Study Groups will be a Manifesto or
          Statements on Critical issues, designed to exhort, reinforce and clearly articulate
          the new season of mission and global direction of the WEA.

nn        The EXPERIENCE
          All the sessions of the GA event are designed to bring a refreshing experience of
          hearing from God together, and receiving inspiration, as we seek to understand
          and embrace what God is calling us to do in the next season as a global alliance.
          We seek a breakthrough in our mindsets and processes, both as individual leaders
          and as a global movement of leaders. The theme and goals of the conference will
          be consistently clarifed, articulated and reinforced at the plenary sessions, work-
          shops and special meeting sessions. There will be opportunities to reflect more
          deeply in discussion groups. Finally, the GA will be like a family reunion, a heart-
          warming time to reconnect and strengthen relationships as a global family.

nn        The COMMITMENT
          Clear follow-up actions from regional and national alliances, commissions, net-
          works, and emerging younger leaders will be developed as concrete deliverables
          of the GA. The WEA senior leadership will review and provide continuing unified
          direction as actions are implemented within the next twelve months after the GA.
          A special session for developing Strategic Planning Initiatives will be held during
          the GA with the goal of immediately seeing local and on-the-ground actions being
          implemented post GA. A Follow-Up Committee for the General Assembly will be
          organized to support the senior leadership of WEA in monitoring, evaluating, and
          championing commitments made and intensifying collaboration across various
          levels of leadership and spheres of influence.

                                                    W E A - GA 2019 Con feren ce Prosp ectus     9
nn          The NEW LEADERSHIP
                 One of the most significant events in the 2019 General Assembly is the election of
                 the new International Council (IC). There will also be a business meeting of the WEA
                 members to officially approve, determine the directions, and agree on the overall
                 policies of the global alliance.

     Conference Participants
     nn          REPRESENTATION
                 The WEA General Assembly is an invitation only event. Prospective partici-
                 pants need to represent various regions, be intergenerational and of mixed gender,
                 meaning current elder and younger leaders. Leaders of various Global issues and
                 causes from WEA commissions, networks and associate members will attend, and
                 leaders from other global movements will also be invited..

     nn          SECTORS
                 Participants will come from WEA Members (National Alliances), Associate Members
                 and Global Partners, Kingdom Network Leaders, Senior Leaders of other Global
                 Movements.

     nn          ROLES
                 In order to achieve the immediate and longer term goals of the General Assembly,
                 it is critically important to bring a strengths-based team of leaders from each of
                 the leadership sectors. In every group, there must be a mix of leaders with varied
                 strengths such as:
                 nn Endorsers, or ‘decision makers’, who are the approving authority and direc-
                      tion-setters, normally composed of elder leaders;
                 nn Influencers, or ‘mobilizers’, who have the passion, social skill and ability to mobi-
                      lize people and resources
                 nn Implementers, or ‘doers’, who will get the job done, and make the plans happen
                      at all levels, especially on the ground.
