enCOURAGE2013—A Conference for Women in Ministry, is just a few days away and registrations are being received daily in the Office of USA Missions. This conference is being planned by and for women in ministry. The schedule of activities and list of keynote speakers is as follows:
On Saturday, July 27, Dr. Rick Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church and author of the best-selling book, “The Purpose Driven Life,” delivered his first sermon since the April 5 suicide of his son Matthew, who struggled with mental illness. Pastor Warren’s wife Kay joined him in sharing a message titled “How to Get Through What You’re Going Through.”
In another ploy to eliminate Christian activity, a group of atheists is trying to derail a prayer caravan on Aug. 10.
The archbishop of Canterbury recently spoke about gifts of the spirit, saying speaking in tongues is a “routine part of spiritual discipline.”
