General Assembly

 

About General Assembly

The General Assembly (GA) is the gathering of local churches through their delegates, pastors, and guests from all our Conference churches. The GA is the highest governing body of the OMS Holiness Church of North America and commits to serving the heart and will of God for our Conference in matters great and small.

The next General Assembly will be held in Honolulu, Hawaii, with general sessions from Friday, September 5 to Saturday, September 6, 2025. The OMB, HSC, and CAO will also meet on Thursday, September 4, 2025.

Additional information including registration, lodging, transportation, and other logistics will be available shortly.
