Meeting #3

The meeting started with a recap of fundraising plans and ideas.  Only one or two things are set in stone, but there were lots of good ideas discussed.  Check the fundraising link for more information about opportunities to contribute via local fundraising events.

As for needs, we had a win in that it looks like we are going to get some coffee for the trip; however, there is still lots to be done and we could really use a physician, dentist, or other type of provider to join us on this trip.

After committee updates, Pastor Roy spoke with us about evangelism.  He led us down the Romans Road (Romans 3:23, 6:23, 5:8, 10:9, 10:13, 5:1, and 8:1).  He then shared the four questions one should answer when giving their testimony.  These include:
1. What was your life like before Jesus?
2. How did you realize you needed Jesus?
3. How did you commit your life to Jesus?
4. What differences has Jesus made in your life?
He explained that the questions should be answered in sequential order, with each answer being a little longer, so that the majority and focus of the testimony is on how Jesus has impacted your life.  He then shared his testimony, followed by a few members of our group sharing as well.  It was a great lesson!

We will try to post fundraising events on the main page as they are confirmed, but be sure to check that link and thank you for your prayers and contributions!
