My favorite time of year is coming!!!!

No, not spring…..the Calvary Mission’s Conference is coming!!! And I CAN’T wait! Basically, the Nations and those who have gone to the Nations come back and share their experiences abroad.  How exciting is that?!?! 

The first Sunday is always my favorite.  I absolutely love seeing the Nations walk into the sanctuary.  To know families have followed the Great Commission to the ends of the earth is almost overwhelming.  Such a blessing to see!

This year Dana Wilson, a sweet woman of God I had the opportunity to meet while serving this summer in Bolivia, is coming back!  I am so excited to see her and to hear how the Lord has been at work in Bolivia.  This year will be such a great conference!
It also time, time to remember:

Psalms 96 “1Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth! 2 Sing to the LORD, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day. 3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! 4 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared above all gods. 5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the LORD made the heavens. 6 Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. 7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! 8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering, and come into his courts! 9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth! 10 Say among the nations, "The LORD reigns! Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity." 11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and all that fills it; 12 let the field exult, and everything in it! Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy 13 before the LORD, for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness, and the peoples in his faithfulness.” (Italics added by author, ESV)
It is time to be reminded of the Lord’s faithfulness.  It is time to look at the stones of remembrance we built and be encouraged by the work the Lord has done.
