Bus to the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht
Through a private bus with a driver, shared group transport, and regional pick-up points, joint participation will be organised more clearly and easily for everyone for October 24, 2026.
WHAT'S YOUR RESPONSE?
It is a question that forces you to choose. To decide whether to remain a spectator, or to become a participant. Because these times call for a generation that dares to respond. To say, “Here I am, send me.” This is not a reaction to hype, but a call to really live. To entrust your whole life to Jesus. Not just on Sundays, but in your studies, your relationships, your choices and your vocation. Because only when you give your all will you discover that He is worth everything.
Be challenged and commit to one of the mission areas: your own city or village, school and university, law and justice, your own work environment or world mission.
Join us at the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht on Saturday 24 October 2026.
We have invited speakers and artists who we are relationally connected with, whose heart is to prioritise the presence of Jesus, the truth of Scripture and the empowerment of all believers to reach this generation.
