Our Conference Offering

Every year, we designate the offerings we receive at the Spring Conference for some pressing need we have in our missions ministry. WE ARE ASKING YOU THIS YEAR TO GIVE A SPECIAL OFFERING FOR THE GENERAL FUND. Of course, we supply the essential commitments and needs of our missionaries from the General Fund. Already this year, we have made significant disbursements for the Language School training the Tates are currently pursuing [$11,000.00] and there are also $9000.00+ in expenses to ship their container with their household and personal effects to Kenya. This is in addition to the increased commitments we have assumed for the salaries and expense accounts for the Tates and the Judson Hatcher family when we approved them for support last year. BRING AS GENEROUS AN OFFERING AS YOU CAN TO GIVE DURING THE CONFERENCE – and if you cannot attend, WOULD YOU CONSIDER SENDING AN OFFERING DESIGNATED FOR ‘SPRING CONFERENCE OFFERING”? God bless you for your grace and generosity toward the Lord’s faithful servants.
