Northern Region Advance

Had a very fruitful and blessed time at the Northern Region Minister's Advance.  Pastor JR and the Northern Region Committee did a fantastic job planning this event, and Pastor Paul and the team at Fairbanks First AG were top notch hosts.  We deeply appreciate everything they did to make this an excellent event.

Pastor Kent Redfearn and Pastor Rick Benjamin taught on Integrity and Excellence in Ministry.  I wish that every minister could have been there to hear this teaching, it was so good and practical. Nathan Lopez came up from Wasilla to lead in worship, and he did a great job.   I was impressed by the turnout, as nearly everyone from the Region was in attendance.  It was so good to see everyone.

We spent some time collaborrating on the strategic plan yesterday afternoon.  We received very good suggestions and input, and appreciate everyone's feedback.  We will be bringing that feedback to the attention of the Presbytery next week.  Thanks Northern Region for such a life-giving event!  Here are some pictures.
