HIGHLIGHTS GATHERING XXXVI
The 111 registered attendees appreciated the three presentations by Rev. Greg Finke as he encouraged us all to continue . . . “Living on Purpose with Jesus.”
Six breakout choices of interest were offered over the two days, three on Monday [“Church Involvement”, “Women in History” and “Six Pillars of Brain Health]”, and the three different topics [“Passing on Your Life Stories”, “Walking the Jesus Walk”, “Strategies to Prevent Fraud and Identity Theft”} on Thursday were presented twice. During breaks, attendees were encouraged to visit the vendors displays.
LCEF hosted a reception which preceded the Monday evening banquet. The MC for the evening, Dr. Phillip Johnson, led us in singing a Julie Andrews-adapted version of “These Are My Favorite Things.” After the meal, guests enjoyed entertainment by the RIVERBLENDERS, a barbershop quartet. Rev. Stefan Wismar, Executive Assistant to MN S District President Rev Dr. Lucas V Woodford led us in a closing devotion.
