April 21-24, 2026 in Washington, D.C.
What is Return?
Join us April 21-24, 2026 in Washington, D.C. for Return: A 1630 Gen Z Summit! Just as Ezra called the nation of Israel back to the Word of God, America needs the same calling today. Ahead of our 250th birthday as a nation, let’s return back to truth – God’s Word holds the answers we seek.
Those who attend this life-changing event will hear God’s Word read from the World Stage Theater at the Museum of the Bible, hear from leaders in our generation and ministries from across the country, network with organizations, meet elected officials, tour the U.S. Capitol, and share the gospel on the streets of Washington, D.C.
Return is an opportunity to sharpen your biblical knowledge, develop your leadership skills, and build community with like-minded believers. This gathering is for 18–30-year-olds only.
We can’t wait to see you in Washington, D.C. in April for Return: A 1630 Gen Z Summit!
Nehemiah 1:9 “But if you turn to Me, and keep My commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out to the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from there, and will bring them to the place that I have chosen to set My name there.”
** This summit is limited to the first 180 registrants. This gathering is for 18–30-year-olds only and is costing Christians Engaged approximately $500 per young person to put on but is being covered by our ministry partners outside of the ticket being purchased for our Gen Z Day at the Museum of the Bible. By signing up at this registration link you are certifying that you will be in Washington, D.C. for the full summit April 21-24, 2026 and that you are between the ages of 18-30 at the time of the summit.
