I know what its like to walk around with no identity or purpose. Not wanting to get out of bed in the morning. You are here on Earth and you don’t know why. I didn’t think I would do anything with my life. I thought I would always be the same rejected person who was lost in religion and not a relationship with GOD. I was looking for the World to fill the emptiness that I had. Last years Conference City takers completely changed that. God showed me I had a purpose and that there were no coincidences or accidents. God has called you and I to know him, to have knowledge of his glory. You who are reading this chose to be where GOD called you to be June 26 & 27 at CGC09 Consuming Fire Conference.
Iam a youth pastor and i hope to receive from the lord only in this amazing fired up for our true and only living god and we should only have a prospective to receive from god in this conference and not form those who preche because their word is given by god.
Being a leader, we sometimes get caught up in serving and being in the backstage of events, that we tend to forget that God wants to minister to us too!! This conference is for every leader who is in need of a change!! For every elder, deacon, ministry leader or anyone, who is hungry for what God is doing NOW, in this time. I was definitely changed at last years conference and can’t not wait for the GLORY of GOD to burn us in this year’s CGC09!!! See you there!o
Last year when the CITY TAKERS conferance came around I was feeling discourage and bored with my walk with God…my prayer life wasn’t the same, I was depressed and honestly felt like giving up. My fire for God was slowly fading away, but as soon as I stepped in the temple the day of the conference God gave me one thing after the other!!! His prescense restored me completely! And everything that seemed to be broken wasn’t anymore! God changed my perspective on my struggles! And gave me such a passion for the souls and His Kingdom! Since then my walk with him has been stable and new everyday!
I know crazyyyyy things are going to happen in this years conference!!!!!
I was just about 3 weeks into God when the conference came around and I didnt have a ticket or a ride but I just put my trust in God and then the day before a girl calls me and she says I have a ticket for you and a ride lol and I was sooooo happy and the conference changed my life and I remember the 1st day I went I couldn’t sleep for the 2nd because I was sooooo excited and I didnt sleep but it was amazing!!!
I had attended ERJ for about 4 years but I never went to a youth conference because I thought that I would be alone and I was really shy. My parents bought me the tickets without me knowing and I went. There I met wonderful new people and felt like a new person! I found were I was supposed to be. That conference renewed me it changed my character and personality now I’m new again and on fire wanting more and more of God’s Glory and Word. I invite you to come to CGC this year and see for yourself how blessed we have been from God’s Glory you can’t even begin to imagine it! Don’t miss out!!!!!!!!
I wanna testify too! Glory! CGC08 was raw! Can u imagine what’s gonna happen in CGC09 under such a dimension of Glory???
I remember I had never been to a youth conference or even attended one of ERJ’s youth services, but I found out about the conference and something in me longed with desperation to be there. A day before the conference, my mother told me she wasn’t going to allow me to go, and on top of that I had no ride because she refused to take me. I prayed and believed God with all my heart. I didn’t know what to expect, but I knew I was destined to be there…to make a long story short, God got me there. GLORY!!
Right after the 1st session P.Andy called the youth to the front. When he prayed for me I literally felt like a bucket of water had been dropped over my head and my hands were frozen in an awkward position, The Lord had delivered me from Masturbation. Not only did He do that but I had unforgiveness in my heart. I was dealing with Abuse, Rejection, Abandonment, you name it. I would cry myself to sleep, pull my own hair, hated my existence, go out to the clubs seeking affection because none was found at home, and GOD DELIVERED ME FROM IT ALL!!! He gave me a second chance! A reason to live, He gave me Joy, and quenched the thirst in me that nothing else was able to.
All these CGC conferences have been life changing for me, and I know that YOUR life will never be the same as well! Dont let the obstacles standing in your way hold you back, just COME!
Last year i attended City Takers conference! What an experience. I honestly did not know what to expect, but the whole conference was CRAZILY AWESOME. I was taken to a knew level of knowing who I was, and following my dreams. my passion and zeal for God was taken to a whole other level. Between Apostle Maldonado speaking about dreams, the impartation, and screaming for the walls of Jericho over the city of miami with Pastor Frank to come down, to the encouragement of Pastor John Grey and Pastor Andy my heart literally was opened to wanting more of God, my relationship with God shifted to a whole other level as well. I wish it could’ve been longer, I didnt want to leave church those couple of days! I remember I was so fired up after one session and encouraged and believeing in my spirit that the walls over miami had come down that I went straight to mcdonalds and told people to swing through. LOL. Overall, this conference was the FIRE and literally activated the fire within me.
Man, what and where can I begin?! See, with me..a retreat(conference) I never, physically attended, was what COMPLETELY changed the coarse of my life forever! Some know my testimony about how I came in contact with CG and ERJ but few know that it was because of a short video of a word given at the ‘Blue Print’ retreat that I am here. After coming across CG myspace I clicked on a video that had P.Melina on it. As I did that the ‘He said, She said’ chat she gave began to play. High on coke I began to cry and weep as she spoke…now, as a believer I understand it was the presence of the holy ghost and the anointing of God in that place that broke me that moment…never would I have imagined THAT would be the mark that allows me to stand a year an a half later serving God and being part of a Chosen Generation.
“City TAkers” was my first experience physically at a youth conference…WOW! The mere fact that I saw thousands of youth crying out for more of this awesome, powerful, overwhelmingly filling God..I experienced the voice of God in such a way…I saw the move of the holy ghost like NEVER …
and well, CGC 09, my God!! My spirit jumps with an expectancy that I KNOW this conference shall be one to release the tangible, visible manifestation of the glory of God that with it its guaranteed to bring transformation, deliverance, reforming, and a CONSUMING FIRE that will set this city and the nations youth on FIIRREE like NEVER before!
To not be at CGC 09 is to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. So, BE THERE or BE THERE!!
