Nothing new regarding the folks we have been mentioning this week because of surgery, hospital stays, et cetera. I ask our folks to remember the Mission of Hope ministry tonight. You are welcome to attend the service at 7:00PM. Pray for this ministry.
It is a little after 4:00AM as I write this entry and the third annual pastors’ conference in Guatemala is now history. The first group left shortly before 4:00AM heading to the airport. The second group will leave the mission house at 9:00AM. We all should be home before midnight if everything is on time and there are no problems.
The conference was a blessing. Registration was 325 (+/-) and we probably had around 375 present for each session. Dr. Tico and his staff did an outstanding job of coordinating and hosting this year’s conference. The folks who came from North America were awesome! We give God the glory for a great three days! Thank you to each person who gave to help make this conference possible.
Jerry Whitmore and I met with 19 folks from El Salvador yesterday afternoon and they gave us a written letter of invitation to host a conference there in 2011. The details i.e. when, where, et cetera remain to be worked out but they are very excited about our being with them.
I pray that you will have a great weekend with Jesus. I look forward to joining the Friendship family in Bible study and worship this Sunday morning.
