Word is spreading, interest is gaining, and people from all over the world are notifying the Mission Office they are coming to the BBFI Korea 2016 Global Meeting on March 14-17, 2016. Individuals from Africa, North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, and from all over Asia have signed up, and many are working on their entry visa permits, passports, and airline tickets!
Preparations are in progress as a number of committees in Korea are working in conjunction with the Mission Office to make this an unforgettable event. Special presentations, cultural exhibitions, a large Korean choir, and uplifting music from around the world will make this a memorable occasion. The key speakers are already working on messages that will encourage us to “Lift Up Our Eyes and Look” — upward to God with thanks, outward to the world in need, inward to see our part, and forward as we work with our worldwide partners to fulfill the Great Commission.
It is not too late to make plans to attend this special occasion as we recount what God has done through our efforts the past 65 years. Leaders from around the world want to express their gratitude and we can encourage them by conveying our desire to work with them and, in turn, let them know how we appreciate their efforts. Your attendance could play an integral part in the future of missions. Come and learn how you can influence our efforts to help change people’s lives eternally through Jesus Christ.
We would love to see as many pastors and their wives, church members, and students make this a once-in-a-life-time trip and meet people from all around the world in one place — people whose lives have been eternally changed because of the mission efforts of the churches and missionaries of the BBFI. Register today at www.BBFIKorea2106.com or contact Jill Wolf (Jill@bbfimissions.com) at the Mission Office for additional information. In order to receive the reduced group rate by staying at the “headquarters” hotel, the MVL, you need to make arrangements through Jill Wolf. Don’t wait too long. Join us!
