SMG Annual Celebration 2026
Let’s celebrate together and find inspiration—join us at our annual gathering on Saturday, June 27, 2026, in Winterthur.
With the theme “Reaching Europe,” we focus on how people on our continent are being touched anew by the Gospel today and how God is at work among us. We explore ways in which hope takes shape in a secular world. Our staff members share stories from their daily lives and testify: God is at work—right here in the heart of Europe just as He is everywhere in the world. Together, we want to immerse ourselves in global mission on this day and experience fellowship with both new and old friends.
We look forward to a day filled with inspiration, connection, and fellowship. Together, we’ll worship, share our thoughts, and marvel at how God is at work in Switzerland and around the world. All in all, it’s a diverse program that encourages reflection and offers practical insights. Please register using the form below.
Whether you’ve been part of the SMG family for a long time or are joining us for the first time—we look forward to seeing you!
