We are just months away from one of the most important gatherings in our shared ministry — the 2026 Triennial Convention, August 17–21, 2026, at Ridgecrest in Black Mountain, North Carolina.
Our theme, “Press On: The Story Isn’t Over” (2 Corinthians 4:16–18), calls us to lift our eyes above the challenges of this world and fix them on the eternal hope we have in Christ. This convention will be a time to worship together, be refreshed in God’s Word and seek his direction for the future of our churches and denomination.
We are blessed to welcome the following keynote speakers:
- Rev. Mike Alix – ACGC Leadership Development Director
- Rev. John Gallagher – ACGC President
- Rev. Daniel Karl – Pastor of Redemption Community Church, Clayton, N.C.
- Rev. Matt Rice – Pastor of Dulins Grove Advent Christian Church, Charlotte, N.C.
We also pray and hope that Johnson Odoyo and Amos Komanya, pastors and missionaries serving among the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes in Tanzania, will join us to share what God is doing through their ministry.
This will be more than a conference — it will be a time of spiritual renewal, encouragement and vision-casting for the mission God has placed before us.

Watch for your “Save the Date” card in the mail, and visit acgc.us/triennial for updates. Registration will be opening soon.
We encourage every church to send representatives and invite as many people as possible to this significant event. Together, let’s “press on” in the strength of Christ, knowing that the story he is writing through us is not yet finished!
