Soul Winners Conference
Our very own Pastor Bill Hudson will be speaking at the Soul Winners Conference taking place at the First Church of New Albany, Indiana.
Themed "Harvest Time."
The heart of this conference is to equip believers to b bold and effective witnesses for Christ. Over the two days, people will be trained and encouraged to share their faith with confidence, lead others to Jesus in everyday moments, and overcome fears, hesitations, and obstacles that often hold us back from speaking up for the Gospel.
This is not just a series of meetings; it is a hands-on time of preparation for harvest that is all around us. Every believer is called to be a soul winner, and it would be a blessing to be equipped, emboldened, and ready to reach families, workplaces, and communities for Christ.
Friday, August 28 - 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM (Childcare provided)
Saturday, August 29 - 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM (Child care provided, light breakfast included)
Field Outreach: Saturday, August 29 at 5:00 PM
Saturday evening outreach will be a practical, guided opportunity for participants to put into action what they learned during the conference. After a brief time of prayer and instruction, teams will go to a local park to engage people with the love of Christ through simple conversations, testimonies, and invitations for salvation.
This outreach is designed to be encouraging and accessible to believers of all experience levels. Participants will be paired with trained leaders who model how to begin conversations, listen with compassion and share the Gospel clearly and respectfully. No one will be asked to do anything alone or beyond their comfort level; this is a supportive environment where believers can grow in confidence while actively reaching our community.
Featured Speakers: Dr. Stephen Ayosanmi, Apostle Francisco Castro, Pastor Bill Hudson, Pastor Steve Burks
The Location: New Albany First Church, 2778 Charlestown Road, New Albany, IN 47150

Guest Speaker Coming to Life Recovery!
Katie will be speaking for us on Thursday September 17th.
Katie Goodwin spent most of her young life bound up in depression, brokenness and drug addiction. While sitting in a jail cell in 2018, she had an encounter with the living God and surrendered her life to Jesus Christ. After she was released from jail, she went to the Butterfly Transformation House where God began a work in her life. In just a few short months, the Lord set her free, restored her family, and even added to it! She and her husband are now youth pastors at Grace Tabernacle in Laconia, and are passionate about declaring "If God can do it for us, He can do it for ANYONE!"
