The national event was held at First Reformed Church in Landis, NC, September 19-21, 2008 and featured the theme "Arise! Gather. Grow. Glorify!" based on John 15:4,8 and Jeremiah 6:9.

Convocation featured dynamic worship and preaching, numerous workshops, break-out sessions, networking, fellowship and tons of southern hospitality.  Former NFL player, Mike Minter of the Carolina Panthers shared a keynote message for teens and adults while youth attending Convocation were entertained by concerts featuring Crucial and Beatlab7.  Kids attending Convocation had their own  activities that featured VBS like rotation experience entitled "The Power of Jesus!"
