From July 16th through 18th, young adults from around the world gathered at Saint Michael’s Church CEC in San Clemente, California, for the first Three Streams Ignited Conference. The Conference was created by five young adults who were inspired in 2023 by HOST CON, the European CEC young adults conference in Treviso, Italy.

The three day gathering was filled with worship, prayer, workshops, and fellowship. Each morning featured incredible speakers, followed by afternoon workshops that equipped and encouraged attendees. Some of the highlights included a beach bonfire, a powerful Fire Night of worship and ministry, and the closing Eucharist on Friday evening.

Bishops Jason Epps, Chris Moran, Chuck Jones, and Brett Crompton were among the many leaders who shared wisdom and vision throughout the conference. From the prayer time to the testimonies, every moment was marked by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Lives were truly transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit at Three Streams Ignited. Physical healings took place as pains and ailments were lifted. The gifts of the Spirit were poured out, and young people prayed in tongues for the first time. Prayers were answered, strongholds were broken, and chains were shattered.

Bishop Jones reminded us that this is Normal Christianity. What we witnessed at 3Sl is exactly what the church is meant to walk in every single day. We intend to continue this daily participation in the adventure of a Christ-filled life.
We are excited to see how God will continue to use this movement to spark revival across our church and beyond. We truly believe this is only the beginning for the next generation of the CEC.
