Immerse 2020
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, we made Immerse Worship Camp history July 1-3, 2020 by holding our first virtual event with 54 participants from 10 countries and six time zones.

During this event hosted on Zoom:
* Worship leaders, workshop teachers and preachers ministered through nine hours of live bi-lingual sessions.
* 24 teachers from the USA, Belgium and Spain pre-recorded 15 hours of breakout sessions on a variety of topics.
* A guest band in Utah and two French-speaking worship leaders in Belgium pre-recorded bi-lingual worship.
* And three translators in Belgium worked to make sure all sessions were bi-lingual.

No doubt, it was one of our most challenging events ever, but so worth it!

Forty students and a volunteer staff of 20 teachers attended Immerse 2019, our third worship training camp. Held at Continental Theological Seminary west of Brussels, students enjoyed 12-hour days of teaching, worship, fellowship, breakouts and workshops.

Seventeen participants from seven churches attended our second Spark Digital Media Conference in Brussels on February 27.

Adam Highfill, a communications consultant from Barcelona, Spain led the general sessions on our theme. Afterwards we offered workshops for social media, websites and images led by JC Cailleau, Benjamin Cailleau and Tom Wart.
