Welcome to OMC!

Welcome to OMC 2024!

We're so glad that you've joined us for the 31st annual OMC conference! This conference has been something we've planned and prayed for months so we are very excited that it's finally here. We cannot wait to see what the next few days will hold.

In this conference, we will learn about our biblical mandate to make an impact wherever we are. We'll see what making an impact looks like when we are at home, but also what it looks like in our current season of life here in the US. Because it influences all aspects of our lives, we'll even touch on relationships and how we should go about that. Finally we will have a panel and hear from all our speakers. We cannot wait to hear about what God has been doing in their lives and how we can learn from them. As we spend the next few days together, we pray that you may be blessed and ultimately make a difference for the Kingdom!

With love,

Raymond Chahyadi and Hana Nurjadi
