The South Pacific is already on the radar of newly elected General Conference president Pastor Erton Köhler, who has confirmed plans to visit the region next year for the launch of SPD for Christ.
In a video message to the SPD church family, Pastor Köhler thanked members for their commitment to the Lord, to the Church, to the Bible and “especially to the mission”.
“I know that [the] South Pacific Division is on fire for mission and I’m planning to visit you next year to celebrate the launching of South Pacific for Christ,” he said.
SPD president Pastor Glenn Townend said Pastor Köhler has agreed to be a plenary speaker for the launch event, which will take place at the church campground, Watson Park, in Brisbane, Queensland, from April 28 to May 3, 2026.
“Plan to come and be inspired and discipled to be a part of God’s mission at this event,” he said.
More information and registration details will be released in the coming months.
