I enjoyed the recent Fellowship Week with several events being the highlights.  The Monday afternoon committees and Tuesday morning service for approvals were a real blessing.  The testimonies were great and I believe we will see God use these called and gifted couples and singles reach many people with the Gospel around the world.  25 were approved as career missionaries, six recognized as TEAM missionaries, and two reinstated back to Australia – Ron & Vicki Letts. 

Another highlight was Tuesday night with Jim Hutchinson (Russia) singing a special song and Jim Smith (Ecuador) preaching a very challenging message.  It was nice to see the entire day of Tuesday emphasizing missions.  Of course, it was great to see all the missionaries present and to have lunch with those who could come on Thursday.  By the way, the Tuesday approval service is on our website to watch and is also available on DVD for $3.00.  If you want one contact Mike at MDuff@bbfimissions.com.
