Mission's Conference at First Baptist Church

Poster created by Brock Plumley

Would you stop right now and pray for this conference?  This  is something Andy & his committee have been working on for over a year.  We're all so excited about it.  And boy!  Has there been a battle for it.  Which only makes me know God wants to do something amazing.

Andy & his committee are bringing in 8 missionaries who have gone out from our church or who are supported by our church.  On Saturday, February 26, we will meet at the church to BLESS our missionaries.  We'll pray over them, encourage them, and share scripture with them and let them know how they've blessed us.  This will be life-changing for them I think.

On Sunday morning, these missionaries will be speaking in our Sunday School classes.  That afternoon, they will set up "booths" where you can meet them and see and hear about their work.  We'll have a dinner with them before our big service that night.

Sunday night is the highlight.  The service starts at 6:30 and will include video testimonies of each missionary, music by our choir and Don Wallace, testimonies of people who have been converted (we're so sad our Asian girls didn't get a visa to come!!)....and so much more.

The main focus of the weekend is to BLESS OUR MISSIONARIES and to give our people a vision for missions.  So much work and prayer have gone into the weekend and it's going to be amazing.  Please don't miss this if you're in our area.  I believe God has an incredible plan in all of it.

And please...keep praying...and spread the word!
