The Lausanne movement, created during the International Congress on World Evangelisation<\/em> in 1974 at the initiative of Dr Billy Graham, is organising its fourth global congress this year. This congress will be held from 22 to 28 September in Seoul. More than five thousand Christians from around the world will gather, both physically and virtually, to pray and reflect on the global mission of God's love. Representatives from our churches will also be there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Lausanne?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

For more than 50 years, the Lausanne Movement has played an important role in encouraging churches in the missionary field. This is done by promoting cooperation among Christians, defining a global mission strategy and equipping Christians in church, work and mission fields. Besides regional meetings in all parts of the world, there have been three global congresses in the past 50 years; 1974 in Lausanne, 1989 in Manila and 2010 in Cape Town. The fourth global congress in Seoul is titled 'Let the Church declare and display Christ together'.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
