St. Louis, Missouri – Mission to North America (MNA) is pleased to announce the 2025 KALI National Gathering, a unique and intimate event created specifically to encourage and equip Korean American leaders serving within the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). The event will be held November 3-6, 2025, on the campus of Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri.

A Gathering with Purpose

The KALI National Gathering is born from a recognition of the complexities and unique experiences faced by Korean Americans in the PCA. As God continues to raise up Korean American leaders across the denomination, this gathering provides vital support through theological training, mutual encouragement, and community formation.

What to Expect

The KALI National Gathering is a more intimate affair. Rather than offering a large conference that platforms well-known evangelical leaders, it is a much smaller gathering where Korean Americans in the PCA will have the opportunity to learn from one another. Attendees can expect:

• Plenary sessions and workshops tailored to the specific contexts and challenges of Korean American pastors and leaders.

• Opportunities for fellowship, with space intentionally created for unstructured time, allowing for relationships to flourish naturally.

• Encouragement for long-term leadership engagement, with a focus on equipping leaders to serve on all three levels of church courts in the PCA.

All meals and on-site lodging at Covenant Seminary are included in the registration fee, allowing for a fully immersive experience.

Why This Gathering Matters

MNA is committed to cultivating kingdom advancement through church planting and church vitality. The KALI National Gathering represents a vital expression of that commitment by investing in the future of minority leadership within the PCA. As North America becomes increasingly diverse, so too must the leadership of the church reflect that reality.

This gathering is a step toward that vision, raising up and sustaining leaders who are deeply rooted in Scripture, culturally aware, and relationally supported.
