We are enjoying the Prayer Conference (I think now they call it the Impact Prayer Seminar) at Jefferson Baptist Church. Today we had three sessions and then a dinner afterwards — delicious steak and potatoes and rolls and green beans. The church here really rolls out the red carpet for the 200-odd (in some cases very odd) pastors and lay-leaders in attendance.
We have attended this conference at least three times before (maybe four) — but there is so much information to absorb, and it is great to get a refresher course every two years or so.
Pastor Duke taught on goals for one of the sessions today — always good to be encouraged in that area.
The conference includes about 16 hours of teaching from Pastor Duke, but he mixes it up with lots of fun illustrations, and is very easy to listen to. Usually by Tuesday night our brains are bursting, and we just want to go back to the hotel and veg-out.
We usually don’t bring our kids to this seminar until they are 15, but David and Sarah are both very mature.
This year Daniel stayed home (he has school on Tuesday and Wednesday) so hopefully he is taking good care of the cats, and vice-versa. I’m sure we’ll come back all fired-up with new passion and enthusiasm for bearing much fruit for God’s Kingdom!
