This time of year is always exciting as it begins the spring mission conference season.  It was my privilege to be invited to attend two conferences this month.

The first was spent with pastor John Waldrip and the members of Calvary Road Baptist Church in Monrovia California.  The conference began on Wednesday evening with a great mid week crowd and appeard to grow with new faces each night.  Pastor Waldrip reported one man coming to Christ and several others making spiritual decisions.  The conference ended on Suday night with a first class Victory Banquet at a fine local resturant.  Thank you Bro. John for being such a great host and inviting me to spend this time among your people. I shall not soon forget this conference.

The second conference I had the privilige of being invited to attend was in Yuma Arizona with the Bible Baptist Church pastored by Alfred Maese.  Pastor Maese began with an orientaton dinner on Saturday evening to allow the missionaries to meet each other and to lay out the schedule for the week.  A BBFI RAN missionary kicked off the week with a tremendous message on Sunday AM setting the tone for the week.  Again, each service built upon the previous and God's presence was evident.  Daniel and Laura Duke on deputation to Peru did a wonderful job presenting their burdon and call and Laura was used to bless those attending with her beautiful voice.

Being invited to present missions and the BBF Mission Office in churches is just one more blessing God gives me.
