Ironwood Seminar Complete
Dennis and I had another mountaintop experience in Ironwood this weekend. We had a wonderful turnout with people coming from at least 10 different midwest congregations with many driving over 5 hours! We have been greatly blessed by our time with so many Christians as we conducted the Seminar. On Wednesday March 25 we will be in Tapiola Michigan for a service and on Sunday March 29 if the Lord so wills we will be at the Esko Minnesota ALC for FM presentations and services. After that in Battle Ground and Hockinson WA from April 2-5. We would love to see you at one of these locations!

Ironwood Seminar
The Ironwood Mission Education and Preparation seminar has now begun. Last night, Thursday the 19th of March was the first session! We traveled the world and spent extended time in India and Russia, and some time in Vietnam.
Tonight at 7 PM we go to South Africa, the Philippines, and Guatemala as well as other places.
On Saturday (tomorrow), we go into detail about the various aspects of work in the field mission work. We will follow a workbook developed by Pastor Dennis Hilman, a twenty year missionary, and by Doctor and Pastor Earl Kaurala. This will not be a lecture series, but rather an interactive session in which we can all learn more about mission work! We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in Ironwood! If you live out west, we will be coming there soon! See the announcement below for that seminar!
