President’s Council Weekend
Fairmont Scottsdale Princess | Scottsdale, Arizona
November 1-3, 2024
SETTLE INTO THE BEAUTY OF THE SONORAN DESERT
Spend an unforgettable weekend with us…
Nothing is more fulfilling than spending a relaxed weekend with friends — encouraging one another, praying for each other, and sharing fresh vision for your life and legacy. That’s why we’re so excited to invite you to this special Fall getaway in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona.
We are praying that you will join us for this weekend. You will be encouraged and we don’t want you to miss this time together.
Our hope for this weekend is that we can bless and encourage you on a personal level, connect you to other like-minded and influential individuals with a passion for Jesus, and inspire you with powerful stories of world-wide impact through the Palau ministry. We trust the Lord will move in a mighty way in our hearts and we want you to be a part of it!
We hope to see you there,
Kevin, Andrew, and Wendy Palau
Let’s worship together…
You will be blessed by award-winning artist and ministry friend, Mac Powell. Mac spent 25 years as lead singer/songwriter for the Grammy-winning band Third Day and is a favorite performer at Palau festivals. We're thrilled to have him lead us in worship throughout the weekend. Some of his well-known songs include New Creation, River of Life, Be Praised, and Love is the Reason.
Be refreshed and inspired…
Be sharpened in your faith and rejoice in the work of evangelism around the world.
Kevin Palau
God’s vision to rescue humanity takes all of us. See how the Lord is leading the Palau team and be inspired by behind-the-scenes reports from our President.
Andrew and Wendy Palau
Be moved to reconnect with Christ’s heart for the lost as you hear biblical encouragement and personal stories from Andrew and Wendy’s recent worldwide ministry.
Josh White
Be sharpened in your faith by an incredibly rich (and often humorous) teaching from pastor and longtime friend of the Palau team, Josh White.
Zack Aspegren
Hear fresh perspectives from our new Chief Development Officer, and discover how you can join us in blanketing every corner of the earth with the Gospel.
Charlotte Sanchez
God is using the arts and technology to change lives in some of the darkest places on earth. Be inspired by the latest report from our Chief Communications Officer.
Friends like you…
Throughout the weekend, be uplifted by personal perspectives on generosity and God’s faithfulness from new friends from across the country.
