The Empowered21 (E21) initiative was launched to focus on new generations and the power of the Holy Spirit. Today, E21 spans the entire globe through 12 regional cabinets seeking to unite the global Spirit-filled movement together intergenerationally for the purpose of seeking a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the 21st century as well as focus the energy and resources of the Spirit-empowered global church on the harvest and challenges before us. E21 desires to encourage greater convergence and collaboration of Spirit-empowered ministries around the world.

The evening rallies are designed to motivate, and the Friday sessions to inform and inspire. The event promises to have everyone leaving refreshed and equipped for transformational ministry in the local church. Pastors are invited to bring staff, leaders, and all who are interested in being empowered to reach this generation.
