The 2025 Atlanta Fall Advance took place over a weekend, from October 3rd through the 5th, at Atlanta Evergreen Lakeside Resort in Stone Mountain, Georgia. The theme for the weekend was “Seated in the Heavenlies”. Ephesians 2:6: “And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:” As born again believers, we can walk out boldly on all that God made available for us in Christ. We were made alive, raised up, and seated in the heavenlies together through him. How blessed we should be to be able to live this freely, knowing that our citizenship is in heaven.

The 2025 Youth Advance was a four-day event at the end of the summer for believers ages 12 through 20s. It took place at a camp called New Life Island located on an island in the Delaware River and included meals and overnight housing. The theme verse was Romans 10:17: “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” The topic of the Advance was “Believing”, and what we do or do not believe is of the utmost importance in this life. The goal was for everyone to build believing and God’s Word in their lives. It was a time of fellowshipping, laughing, and believing God’s Word together.

In this first of two Married Couples’ Nights for 2025, 40 couples gathered on a Saturday night at the Fellowlaborer House, with more than 100 more connected online for an evening of fellowship and two teachings, one by Mrs. Diane Carr and the other by Rev. Joe Armstrong. The teachings were simultaneously translated into Spanish so that couples in South America could participate also. The topics, both very practical, were designed to meet important needs and were handled with love, insight, humor and clear examples.

This weekend-long event for believers who attend fellowships in Northern New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut was held at The Hermitage in Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey. There were seven teachings on topics from God’s Word related to the Weekend’s theme, your walk with God, as well as time to pray with a partner, eat a meal together, and fellowship together. There was also children’s fellowship for kids between the ages of two and ten, simultaneous translations into Spanish of the teachings, and a bookstore.

This event consisted of an afternoon with two teachings for adults with separate children’s fellowships going on at the same time, a break to allow the believers time to fellowship together, and refreshments. It was an opportunity for the believers from fellowships throughout the Central Area of New Jersey to be together.

The 2024 Atlanta Fall Advance took place over a weekend, from October 4th through the 6th, at The Inn at Stone Mountain Park in Stone Mountain, Georgia. The focus of the weekend was to take action in speaking God’s Word and manifesting power. The teachings during this weekend reminded us that we as believers are encouraged to speak the Word to ourselves, to those in the family of God, and also to reach out to those who have not yet believed. We have a living, powerful Word to share and we can and should share it boldly with the love of God.
