Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
God grant each of you a blessed Holy Week and a joyous celebration of the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Thankfully you and I have personally experienced the gift of faith in Jesus for forgiveness, eternal life and salvation. This is not true for a significant number of people that live in your community and region. We who have received this gift have Christ’s personal exhortation to share this gift with those that are unaware of His sacrifice for them. We are His witnesses. We have his command to make Disciples by baptizing and teaching God’s Word.
Linked below are edited versions of the recorded notes from the regional gatherings that have been conducted throughout the District. My prayer is that you, along with all of the individuals that participated in your group discussions will come back together to continue the discussions in your Circuit or at least two or more neighboring congregations will do so. I further pray that through your discussions that you will develop and implement plans to mutually address one or more of the five emphases:
Thank you again for attending a regional gathering. God bless your Holy Week worship and Easter celebration!
President Mirly
