Evergreen District Event

September 22 – 24, 2026 | Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
— Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)

Ministry leadership and servanthood are deeply meaningful—but they can also be incredibly demanding. That’s why Citygate Network’s 2026 District Conferences are thoughtfully designed to help ministry staff pause, refocus, and reconnect with the heart of their calling.

Rooted in the theme Above All Else (Proverbs 4:23), each gathering will offer a powerful blend of soul care, leadership development, and Christ-centered encouragement for those serving on the frontlines.

Citygate Network President/CEO Tom De Vries will be joined by Steve Cuss to deliver messages of restoration, clarity, and practical wisdom for thriving in ministry, while each district leadership team has curated programming and activities designed to engage both heart and mind.

Together, they’ll guide attendees through an honest exploration of how to do ministry without losing your soul and how to lead the most difficult person you know—yourself.
