Mission Conferences and New Friends





"Let us encourage one another..." 

Therefore encourage and build one another up, just as you are already doing.1 Thes 5:11

This past month we had the blessing to attend Shell Lake Full Gospel Mission Conference. While there with Pastor Kelton we were able to receive the encouragement and uplifting that our souls needed. We stayed from Sunday till Tuesday in Shell Lake thanks to their hospitality in hosting us. 


It was so amazing to see missionaries who started where we are and now, 30 years later, are still serving God. We, rightfully so,  felt like babes in a room of giants. We saw God provide for large needs in a matter of minutes and it was a lesson to learn in His provision.  It was neat to learn all the different ministries that are in the world causing change in the life of people all over the world.  The focus of the conference was that "We are more than conqueres in Christ" how true of an encouragement .  


While at the conference Eric attended a steak feed with the guys and I got to have afternoon tea with the ladies. 
It was wonderful to be prayed over and have our ministry be lifted up in prayer as well.

The best part of this month is that we got to host Pastor Kelton for a night. He brought with him Stan and Sarah. They have a church planting ministry within the gypsie population in England and Eastern Europe .  We loved having them stay with us and then getting to know them more at the conference .  We thank God for the friendship he has started that will continue on to our tine in England. 

While they were here we just had to show them the green and gold. 



We also found out that we will get to see Pastor Kelton again this last weekend in October .  He will be with us for one night and then join us at church the next morning. It's always great to join our sending church here and the receiving church in England. 

God Bless!
