Missions Conference 2010

Posted by Scott Capp on

Missions Conference 2010 was a huge hit!  We had at least twice as many people attend the Friday night missions fair this year as we have had in any of the past years.  The total number of attenders was over 250!  It was a family friendly event and there was something for the whole family. The missionaries did a great job of having hands on booths and crafts for the kids.  And the parents enjoyed them too.

Saturday morning went very well.  We were able to serve 20 Burmese refugee families in Aurora and inveite them to Grace Bible Curch for lunch. We were able to share the gospel with them through a translator that did a double translation (into two different dialects).  It was a fantastic time of fellowship and we had 50 refugees join us for lunch and close to 85 volunteers come out to serve!

Our theme of "God's Power for a Global Harvest" is something that we as a church want to continue to think about throughout the year and Missions Conference was a gret jumpstart into 2010!
