GFM's 25th Anniversary
Celebrate 25 Years of God's Faithfulness!
In 2025, Global Frontier Missions is celebrating our 25th anniversary - and we want you to join us! We will have gatherings in two unique locations:
- Bangkok, Thailand, our newest GFM Hub! Bangkok is in the heart of the Buddhist world surrounded by 74 unreached people groups.
- Clarkston, Georgia, notably the most diverse square mile in America, home to refugees and immigrants from over 65 countries.
Join us to celebrate GFM's history. Hear stories of what God is doing in the ministry, and where GFM is headed in the future. You'll experience multi-ethnic worship, devotional teachings, testimonies from staff and participants, time for fellowship, and plenty of awesome ethnic food!
We want these gatherings to be financially accessible to our staff, alumni, board members, and donors. So, we are only asking for $25/person for all food and housing, for the three day celebration. To assure accurate attendee counts, all registrations must include the $25/person payment. We will have childcare during as much of the events as possible, so you'll just need to get to the location!
Seats are limited, so please register early!
To register:
- Submit the corresponding RSVP form for your chosen event (Bangkok or Clarkston).
- On the payment page, select "25th Anniversary Celebration" and complete your $25 payment.
- Book your flights! If you’d like to extend your stay for ministry or vacation, GFM can provide suggestions for housing and activities (though we’re unable to facilitate extended trips).
