It’s also the effect, result, or repercussion of an event: aftermath; consequence. Aftershock The Movement is part of the aftermath that took place in the book of Acts. It’s geared toward empowering, educating and motivating the youth and young adults of the church to assist in moving the church forward. This movement will equip the youth and young adults of today’s momentous church to use their gift in drawing others to Christ while having their lives remain a light in a dark world. Through workshops presenters and conference speakers, Aftershock the Movement will be a vehicle used to drive the church to new levels while using the basic principles of fasting and praying to get us there. An AFTERSHOCK filled with deliverance, healing, restoration, praise and worship is expected to hit the Las Vegas Valley and spread throughout the world.
