Favorite Time of Year at Church

This past week we kicked off our mission's conference at church. It is absolutely my favorite week of church in the entire year. Last Sunday, they had the children bring all the flags of the nations where we have missionaries on stage. It brought tears to my eyes.

This weekend is certain to be a busy one. We have the pleasure of hosting a missionary couple in our home for the weekend. They are involved with medical missions to Jamaica so we are excited to meet them and talk with them about medical missions (something that is on mine and John's heart).

This is completely random, but I've been wanting to share it since I first learned about it in my Perspectives on the World Christian Movement class. It is called Global Rich List. Check it out! It really puts things in perspective, if you make $50,000 or more, you are in the top .98% richest people in the world! Wow!

Hope every one has a great weekend!

That will be so fun to host a missionary couple! I hope to do more short-term missions at some point in the future. Hope you have a wonderful conference!
