Missionary Renewal

Every summer the Assemblies of God World Missions hosts missionaries from around the world in Springfield, Missouri, for training of new missionaries, and refreshing for veterans (that's me). It used to be called School of Missions. Now it's called Missionary Renewal. I like the name change, and am happy that the schedule reflects this shift in focus.

After 5 years on the field, with just a few brief visits back to the USA (the last one for me was Christmas 2009 and only lasted 6 days!), a "renewal" is welcome.

This week has been very refreshing and renewing for me. Much to think about and more importantly, pray about, but there is an environment present to do just that.

I am excited about the year ahead. It will be busy: traveling 40,000 miles, speaking 100+ times, making thousands of phone calls, sending thousands of letters. But I get to share about one of my favorite subjects: what God is doing around the world, specifically in Europe, as we at Continental Theological Seminary train students for ministry.

If you are a pastor or church member and would like for me to share at your church, small group, Sunday school class, kids church, youth group, or we just meet at a local coffee shop and talk over a cup, SEND ME A MESSAGE! It would be a joy to meet you and talk about God's work in Europe.

TOGETHER - we can reach a world without hope with the HOPE OF JESUS CHRIST!
