CC Missions Conference 2008



We had a wonderful time at the Missions Conference during the 2nd week of furlough. The weather was perfect - we were able to just sit outside and enjoy the sunny SoCal weather (as the weather in Freiburg stayed just above freezing!). But more importantly, we enjoyed the 'spiritual refreshment' that we received at the conference. There were much that spoke directly to Becks and I - what our roles, duties and calling are, what God desires from us and what God is doing now in other parts of the world. It was also great to catch up with people we haven't seen in years - missionary friends in Mexico, England, Germany and Hungary.

And the kids also enjoyed the conference - especially Jesaiah and Taliah. They were in the same class for Children's Ministry and enjoyed the mini Vacation Bible School that the was put on for their ages. They learned about the fruit of the spirit and even taught us about it!

Here are a few photos from the conference...

hi rose,
0 celisius is freezing (32 f). go here for an online temp converter...

basically this is how i convert - take celsius number, multiply by 2, then add 32 to that number. it's close. the real conversions is so - C*(9/5) + 32 = F.

can't you tell i used to be an engineer??!?!?! ;-)
