GOFaith Conference

STRENGTHENING EUROPE
October 19–23, 2026 • Faith Baptist Bible College

GOFaith brings students, faculty, staff, missionaries, and ministry partners together to see global gospel needs clearly and consider how God may call each of us to pray, support, and go.

This year’s theme, Strengthening Europe, calls us to remember the continent’s gospel heritage, recognize its present spiritual need, and strengthen Christ-centered churches through faithful partnership and proclamation.
Theme: Strengthening Europe
Dates: October 19–23, 2026
Location: Faith Baptist Bible College, Ankeny, Iowa
Who should attend: Students, churches, ministry partners, and conference guests

Theme: Strengthening Europe

John Wycliffe, often called the “Morning Star of the Reformation,” championed salvation by faith alone, the headship of Jesus Christ over the church, and the availability of Scripture to every person. His influence spread across England and Europe, helping prepare the way for later Reformers and for gospel-preaching churches throughout the continent.

Today, Europe’s gospel heritage has faded beneath secularization, religious pluralism, consumerism, and spiritual indifference. Christ-centered churches remain across Europe, but many communities need pioneering church planters, while others need partners who will train, encourage, and support national leaders.

Our prayer is that God will use His Word throughout GOFaith to stir our hearts toward Europe. Come ready to consider how God may use you to strengthen His church through prayer, support, partnership, and going—with open hands, open eyes, and open hearts.

Why GOFaith?

Faith goes. Faith in Christ is not static; belief leads to obedient action. Because God is worthy of worship from every nation, we proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and go wherever He opens the door.

Global Opportunities. “GO” reminds us of the global opportunities before every student, faculty member, staff member, church, and ministry partner. Gospel doors are open, and we pray that the Lord of the harvest will send workers.

Global Operations. “GO” also represents Faith’s global operations. Faith actively exposes students to worldwide needs, serves believers across cultures, and helps train national leaders. Faith is already on the go.
