The British are coming! And the Bulgarians! And the Egyptians! And the French! And the Hungarians! And the Italians! And the Lebanese! And the Russians! And the Serbians!
That's right. In just a little over a week, representatives from each of these countries in the Europe/Middle East region, plus numerous others from around the globe, will converge in...
...Anderson, Indiana.
Yes, you read that right.
As Anderson is the home of the national office (for the U.S.) of the Church of God, so Anderson will be home to thousands of people from all around the world for the Global Gathering of the Church of God.
This unique experience will afford those who attend: Opportunities to join in worship with God's global Church; Opportunities to hear the Word proclaimed from men and women serving in various leadership capacities on 6 continents; Opportunities to learn more about the international presence of the Church of God; Opportunities to serve with your money and with your time; And opportunities to connect over conversations with folks you've only seen on facebook and e-mail.
Specifically for us, Three Worlds will host a reception for the region of Europe & The Middle East.
This will take place on Saturday June 22, from 7-9 PM in the Covenant Room of Park Place Church of God. Three Worlds missionaries, Daniel & Christy Kihm, Zach & Audrey Langford, and Kelley Philips, will be there to host you as you mix and mingle with folks from this region and/or folks interested in this region! We will have updates and interviews with National Leaders present and with other 3W missionaries who are absent from the States. It will be a festive gathering like none other.
Whether you are able to make it to the Global Gathering or not, please be in prayer for all the folks who are traveling great distances to come to us.
Also, we want you to know about ways that many in the region of Europe/The Middle East are celebrating Unity. Here is a LINK to a brief story illustrating creative ways to fellowship on the other side of the Pond.
So to recap:
Saturday June 22, 7-9 PM, Covenant Room-Park Place Church. Be there!!!
We hope to meet you there and share more about God's call on our lives to serve with his Church in the Netherlands.
