Photo from the archives. In 2000 a team of 6 BFC pastors were hosted by the BOM. Most of these pastors were never before on an over sea’s missions trip. The team is standing on the equator in Kenya. Included in the photo:

Up Coming Events

Culture Link Seminar
Harleysville BFC
Canceled

Culture Link creator Larry Ragen is holding a Culture Link Seminar in the Lancaster Area October 20-22. I highly recommend this seminar to all who will be conducting S-T mission trips in 2006. Information on the Seminar will follow.


RWR Filling Quickly

Board of Missions
RWR
November 18-20

Every Fall the Board of Missions conducts an RWR at Pinebrook Bible Conference. An RWR is a Retreat within a Retreat held Friday through Sunday. Those who participate work as conference personnel throughout the weekend, and conduct their own retreat during their off-duty hours.
The Board of Missions' RWR is for teens and singles to spend some time thinking about God's plan for their lives as it relates to missions. Besides spending time looking into God's Word, there is also a missionary in attendance to add valuable insights on following God's lead into missions.
If you or someone you know would be interested in attending the next RWR contact the Board of Missions for additional information. God has done amazing things through this ministry.
