We just arrived back from CRM’s World Wide Conference that is held every four years.

This year is was in Malaysia.

There were 500 plus missionaries and families from all over the world.

At least Forty-two languages were represented.

Nearly 18 different ministry area emphases were represented.

But only one goal: to allow the love of Jesus to reach the nations.

The theme of the conference hit home:

Word: the actually living Word learned, lived out and preached to the nations…

Power: His Power doing things that we can not do.

Deed: the Action behind our faith.

These represent the complete gospel.

We rubbed lives with people we had not known and with people we had not seen for over 20 years.

We were inspired by some and in turn we inspired others as well.

We talked about the strengths of our organization as well as how to overcome some of the weaknesses of our organization.

We worshiped together.

Wept together,

Confessed together,

Celebrated together,

Learned together,

Danced together,

Broke Bread and drank Wine together,

Ate together and

Played together.   

Our kids ran with other MK’s (missionary kids) for a full week.

We arrived home jet-lagged but inspired and even more ready to take up our cross for causes way greater than us and for a God that is even Greater still!

Thanks for praying for us during this time.
