What is TWMS?

To reach the world, you must first see the world. There is no other time, place, or opportunity where you will encounter the far reaches of the earth in a singular location. Immerse yourself in distant cultures through 360 degree, interactive experiences. Hear intimate life stories from the missionaries who have been there themselves. Pray over the Nations and let God build deep passion in your heart for every tongue and tribe. The needs, hopes and dreams for the nations are loud and God has chosen to partner with YOU to fulfill them.

Chi Alpha Campus Ministries, U.S.A. in partnership with the Assemblies of God World Missions invites you to join 8,000+ students and missionaries to sync your hearts with God’s whose beats for all nations. Allow us to bring the nations to you through large group gatherings, meals with missionaries, prayer for the nations, and exhibits. We are inviting you to The World Missions Summit. Come see the world. Come change the world.

What to Expect

This historic gathering is comprised of five primary components that are designed to inspire, mobilize, and empower students to change the world.

The Gatherings

The Gatherings are the large group component of TWMS5 where we will worship corporately, hear real time global reports and stories and be powerfully challenged by relevant messages delivered by missionaries living their faith around the world.

Windows to the World

Windows to the World are interactive experiences representing the various regions and ministries around the world. Here, you will get an idea of the sights, sounds, smells and challenges facing the mission field. You will also hear the needs in each region or ministry and ways you can assist in meeting them.

Exhibits

The exhibits at TWMS5 are state of the art and designed to provide resources or opportunities for service. Exhibitors at TWMS5 are not vendors! Here you can meet with missionaries and ministers, ask questions, and drink coffee.

Meal with a Missionary

At the first meal, students can choose to sit wherever they like. This will become your designated table throughout the entire conference. During the four meals provided by the conference, the participants will sit at the same table and missionaries will rotate. Each table will be hosted by a different missionary each meal. During the meal, participants will hear the missionary’s “story”, be able to ask questions and process their TWMS5 experience.

Prayer for the Nations

Prayer is part of the 5-Fold Philosophy of Ministry in Chi Alpha. We daily seek God’s face and depend on Him in every way to give us direction. For this very reason, we will be gathering every day throughout The Summit for a deliberate time of transformative prayer for every nation of the world! In addition to the corporate prayer times that we will have each morning, we have dedicated a room near the main hall where The Gatherings will happen for students and leaders to come and seek God’s face for the Nations!

We Live Missions

Missions is no longer optional. We need students, student leaders, and missionaries alike to join us by committing to Go, Give, Pray, and Welcome Everyday!

“We can do this if we will.”
