GCBN 16th Year Anniversary Gala 

We thank God for 16 years of favor, grace, and blessings over the Georgia Christian Business Network (GCBN) as we present the 16th Annual event with our theme: SHIFT: GCBN 16th Year Anniversary Gala! 

For a decade and a half, we have remained focused, determined, and intentional in galvanizing Christian business owners and professionals who are committed to Put God Back in Business! This year, as we celebrate 16 Years of Kingdom Impact, we are taking a monumental SHIFT and aligning to all that God has for His people! 

Our evening will include: - GHAPA Awards Presentation – the God Has A Plan Awards, honoring leaders and visionaries making a Kingdom difference. - Highlights of the year 2026! - 

Keynote Speaker: Pastor Jesse Curney III – Licensed to preach in 1987, Pastor Jesse Curney III earned multiple ministry degrees before launching New Mercies Christian Church in 2002 following a vision from God. Under his leadership, the Lilburn, Georgia church has grown from 35 founding families to over 4,000 members supported by more than 46 active ministries. Beyond his pastoral leadership, Pastor Curney is actively involved in community and university boards and lives with his wife, Aleana, alongside their growing family.
