Your Job = A Ministry Opportunity

Saturday we had a very full and different day helping with a conference that Asas held here in Anapolis.
The theme of the conference was about using your profession as a means to reach out to others. All Christians, not just pastors and missionaries, are called to reach out to others in our lives with the love of God and the Good News of the Gospel....each in our own circle of friends and through the people we know as a result of our profession. The speakers encouraged those who came out to do the best job possible in their professions so this will serve as a testimony for the moments they are able to share directly about how God has transformed their lives.





There was a really good turn out from people in the community - about 80 people in total

I was especially excited that several young women from our church came out as a result of us telling them about it (one is on the left). They are now really excited about working to spread what they learned to the rest of our church.








There were 2 workshops and 2 main sessions - a good amount of variety to keep people alert and thinking.





Asas de Socorro and a few other missions organizations set up stands and were able to talk to people who were interested in knowing more about full time missionary work.


I helped organize and prepare the food and Jeyson was the official event photographer.


This couple with us were the main organizers - they did a great job and we all left challenged and encouraged to put what we learned into practice.
