Today we wrapped up the conference and sent everyone on their way. I can tell you, it was a very blessed 3 days and it all went so well. Today I taught for about 2 hours, teaching the final session for 90 minutes and then a 30-minute recap before we ended it. What I felt more than ever was that my generation has really had an impact on the world for the Gospel but in many ways, it is time for my generation to step aside and make way for the younger leaders of the church going forward. I told them that my focus is now on preparing the next generation of church leaders whenever and wherever I am able. The feedback from many of the attendees was gratitude, and a kind of “Let’s do this again next year” feeling. What a privilege to invest in these young pastors and leaders. I love what I do!
So, over the next 2 days (Thursday and Friday) we have 4 meetings scheduled with other leaders, discussing plans for future ministry opportunities. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks to all of you who have read the blog and posted a response. It means a lot to know that you are interested and you are praying for us.
The photos below show me with a group of folks who attended, a photo of Isaac being presented with some gifts, and a view of the inside of the church.
Thanks again for the prayers. Looking forward to the next couple of days.

Pastor Dave, it’s encouraging to see how they’re so excited and open about learning from you. I can see happy smiley faces full with joy. I am praying for the same thing happens in Wonogiri soon.
Thanks for the status and the pictures. We love hearing what you are doing, and the pictures help us appreciate the people to whom you are ministering. We are praying for you and Isaac.
David,
Thank you so much for sharing about your trip. I love seeing the pictures as they bring everything that you are doing alive. What an amazing blessing you and Issac must be to them. I am glad you felt well for your sessions and will be praying that the next two days of meetings go well. We love you!
I so enjoy it when you blog and post pictures on your trips! Thank you for all you do in this world, Pastor David! Prayers continue.
Stay healthy and safe and we will see you 2 kids back home soon; you are missed ya know.
