One of the most notable aspects of this trip was to have our Board Chair, Mark Stewart join us for a few days during our gathering. Mark is a dear and trusted friend and an incredible Kingdom servant and thinker. Our partners were glad to meet him and be encouraged by him. I am proud to serve with this brother.

“I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” (Philippians 1:3-6 ESV)
