The Conference
The Impact Movement National Conference is rooted in the mission to inspire, equip and mobilize people of African descent to grow in their relationship with Christ and impact their communities. As a rallying point for college students, high school students, and young professionals committed to the mission of The Impact Movement, the conference serves to encourage, energize, and mobilize leaders who will infiltrate every professional genre as Kingdom citizens.
The conference is filled with dynamic speakers, powerful worship, seminars and outreach to the local community, congealed together by the unique and transformational communal setting. Join us for this amazing experience and see what God can do in your life!

"Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us."

There are several practical steps you can take. In addition to saving your own money, we suggest that you reach out to family members, mentors and your church leaders. Try to break up the payments in chunks instead of paying for the whole thing at once. We also have provided a sample letter of support that you can use and distribute to those who may want to help you. We are prayerful that God will provide!

The hotel offers valet parking only for $55 per day with in and out privileges. There are a number of parking options in the surrounding area, but they are not affiliated with the Peachtree Westin Hotel and may not offer overnight parking.
