Here We Still Stand is an invitation to celebrate the gospel truths reclaimed in the Reformation and a call to incite a modern Reformation under the banner of the finished work of Christ.  This annual three-day event is packed with teaching, music, food, and fellowship; all focused on the radical message of God's grace towards sinners.

Come and join this assembly of sinners & saints standing in the freedom of the Gospel.
