Holy Spirit Conference

The theme of the 2013 Holy Spirit was "Speak to the people all the words of this life."  It was hosted by MCA in partnership with the Alaska Ministry Network and Central Region.  We enjoyed the rich teaching from Dr. Joseph Castleberry, Dr. Byron Klaus, and Pastor John Bueno.

 

We are trusting God for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit over Alaska in 2013.

 

 

Holy Spirit Conference

The promo material for the upcoming Holy Spirit Conference, including schedule information, is in the picture above.  If you click the picture, you can view it more easily.  The speaker lineup is very exciting this year, as we have Dr. Joseph Castleberry, President of Northwest University; Dr. Byron Klaus, President of the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary; and Pastor John Bueno, longtime Director of Assemblies of God World Missions.

The theme this year is  taken from Acts 5:20:  “Speak to the people all the words of this life.”  The Greek word for “speak” is “laleo,” which implies a conversational, informal way of speaking.  We will be looking at how the Holy Spirit speaks to us the words of life as it relates to world evangelization, daily conversations, and the Church. 

 The meetings will all be held at Muldoon Community Assembly.  The Holy Spirit Conference is a partnership between the Central Region, MCA, and the Alaska Ministry Network.  We hope you will join us on Sunday evening, Jan. 13, at 6:00pm.  Meetings on Monday through Wednesday will be at 9:30am, 10:45am, 6:00pm, and 7:00pm.  Children’s and Youth Services will be held in conjunction with the Holy Spirit Conference during the evening services.

World Missions Summit

In just a few days thousands of Chi Alpha students from across the U.S. will gather in Ft. Worth, Texas for the third World Missions Summit (WMS). These students will be challenged to commit a year to Missions somewhere in the world and to pray about committing a lifetime to Missionary Ministry.

Missionary Terry Hull and Missionaries Lattis and Sharlotte Campbell will be representing Alaska Missions at this gathering. Alaska has been given three fifty minute breakout sessions where students will be presented with the needs, opportunities, and challenges of Alaska Missions and will be allowed to ask questions.

An Alaska Display Booth will be operating throughout the WMS with photos and videos constantly playing. Also, a QR code card will be distributed to students which will take them directly to a new Web page designed to help those interested in Alaska with possible job openings and ministry opportunities.

Please pray for this meeting that God will touch the lives of thousands for ministry somewhere in the world, and especially for ministry here in Alaska.
