Excitement is building as the Ignite Wildfire Youth Conference prepares to welcome hundreds of young people from across the region, and Pastor Ron Stanley of Word of Faith Family Worship Cathedral recently joined Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler on The Wake Up With Dee Morning Show to share what attendees can expect from this transformative event.
During the interview, Pastor Stanley discussed the mission behind the Ignite Wildfire Youth Conference and why the event has become a powerful gathering designed to inspire, empower, and equip the next generation of leaders. Taking place June 18–20 in Austell, Georgia, the conference will bring together dynamic speakers, artists, and faith leaders for three days of worship, motivation, fellowship, and personal growth.
Pastor Stanley emphasized that Ignite is more than just a conference—it's an experience created to help young people strengthen their faith, discover their purpose, and connect with others who are committed to making a positive impact in their communities.
One of the highlights of this year's conference will be appearances by Grammy-nominated gospel artist Jonathan McReynolds and Christian hip-hop artist 1K Phew, both of whom are expected to bring powerful messages and unforgettable performances. Attendees will also hear from renowned leader Bishop Dale C. Bronner and motivational speaker Jasmine Sims, creating a lineup designed to inspire and encourage youth from all walks of life.
The conference welcomes young people ages 12 to 25 and offers opportunities for both individual and group participation. Pastor Stanley encouraged families, churches, youth organizations, and community groups to register as soon as possible, noting that seating is limited and filling quickly.
The event kicks off on Thursday, June 18, with an Opening Night experience that is completely free and open to all ages. Registration for Friday and Saturday sessions starts at just $89.99, with group rates available for organizations bringing multiple attendees.
Throughout the interview, Pastor Stanley stressed the importance of investing in young people and creating spaces where they can grow spiritually, develop leadership skills, and build meaningful relationships with peers and mentors.
