What can one say about the San Antonio World Discipleship Summit? It was the largest gathering in the history of our churches. Almost 18,000 registered. Roughly 17,000 attended. Participants came from 90 different nations, representing hundreds of our churches. Fifteen languages were translated. Participants stayed in 32 different hotels. We rented 80 buses for our 9,000 bus riders.
Daytime we were in the Gonzalez Convention Center spread across 8 different conferences. At night we came together at the giant AT&T Center. Over the next few days, HotNews will be sharing photos, stories and news. Stay tuned... Photo: Mariachi band plays as the hall fills on Friday night.
