Empowered21's 'Amsterdam2023' Conference Available Online: Registration Now Open

Global Event Unites Believers in Fulfilling Great Commission by 2033

TULSA, Okla., June 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Empowered21, a relational leadership network representing the more than 650 million Spirit-empowered Christians, will host Amsterdam2023, a three-day conference and one-day stadium event on June 21-24, 2023, at Amsterdam RAI & Olympic Stadium. Influential leaders and powerful speakers are gathering at this international event to launch a decade of unprecedented evangelism to see the gospel reach every person on earth by 2033. Thousands will attend in-person, but a free online option is now available for virtual attendance, as well.

"For those who cannot attend Amsterdam 2023 in-person, all the general sessions will be available to watch live online via the event's website for free. For a small fee, viewers can also watch the breakout sessions of their choosing. We want everyone to be able to benefit from the training and encouragement God is providing through this event, whether they're with us in Amsterdam or with us online," shared Empowered21 Global Chair, Dr. Billy Wilson.

Registration is now open for people to watch the online version of this conference at https://register.amsterdam2023.com/Amsterdam2023.

Empowered21 has also recently launched a 21-day prayer initiative, encouraging individuals to pray leading up to and through the conference. Prayer guides can be found at www.amsterdam2023.com.

With the goal of catalyzing a new era of evangelism by re-personalizing the Great Commission, Empowered21 believes that Amsterdam2023 will kick off the most significant decade of growth in the history of the Church. It will do this by calling Christians to fulfill the Great Commission by the year 2033—significantly marking the 2,000-year anniversary of the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus and the birth of the Church on the Day of Pentecost.

"I believe we're entering the most important decade of evangelistic effort in the history of the Church," said Dr. Wilson. "For the past 2,000 years, Christians have been praying for the fulfillment of the Great Commission. Today, we're closer than we've ever been before. It's imperative that we come together prayerfully and collaboratively, fully committed to take the news of Jesus to every person on earth."

The international event will feature more than 150 influential leaders and powerful speakers to launch this transformative decade. Amsterdam2023 will equip believers from across the globe to:

  • Collaborate cross-culturally about the Great Commission
  • Innovate new ways to reach more people with the Gospel
  • Experience the power of the Holy Spirit
  • Inspire a greater vision of God's heart for the world

"A new era of evangelism is dawning. We have the technology, the resources, and the people. Let's finish the task," Dr. Wilson encouraged. "Join us in Amsterdam as we intercede, collaborate and mobilize to reach the world with the message of Jesus."
