WMC

It's time for our World Missions Conference. Our mission partners are flying in from all over the world to be here. This is almost as much a homecoming celebration as it is a missions conference. I cherish every moment I have with our missionaries. Our Springfield partners will be gathering here also. They have become dear friends.

You received in the mail a letter from me this week. In it is a commitment card for Sunday morning's worship service. Please bring it with you Sunday morning. When people bring their cards to the front, it is one of the most emotional worship experiences of the year for me. It matters to this Pastor because I know some people are making a true sacrifice to give an offering to our missions causes.

Dr. Stephen Davis, one of Southern Baptists' most noted missions leaders, will be preaching Sunday morning. Sunday night we will honor and say farewell to Preston and Courtney Goings for their seven years of ministry as our missionaries to Puerto Vallarta. After the service we will enjoy a church wide fajita supper. Olè!!
