The GLS Inspires a City Movement in Danville, Illinois

One of the outcomes occurring organically through the Summit is something we now call “city movements”–key government, business, education and church leaders are coming together because they believe that better leadership is key to transforming their cities. And we are watching these city movements grow across the country.

One of those cities is Danville, Illinois, where leaders are coming together at the Summit with one goal in mind–to address the very real needs of their city and move forward to a better tomorrow.

Real change is happening! They are combatting issues of drugs, unemployment and poor education. What if, through the Summit, city movements grew across the country? Imagine the impact!

Because of you and our shared belief in what God can do through leadership, the impact of the Summit has grown. THANK YOU!

The Aim Higher goal we’re reaching for this year is above and beyond our annual funding needs. With your support, our country can increasingly reflect the Kingdom of God, as people from all sectors are activated and equipped together, to pursue grander visions in their cities!
