Mission Conference in Thief River Falls


Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Theif River Falls held its annual Missions Conference on April 23rd. Missionary Connely Dyrud and Mission Director Del Palmer were the guest speakers.

This years theme was "A Mighty Wind Blowing in Missions." Texts were taken from the first two chapters of Acts where Jesus promised the disciples that they would receive power to witness to the world. The fulfillment of the promise came in Acts 2 when the Holy Spirit filled the believers and they began to boldly proclaim the Kingdom of God.

The emphasis was made that this same mighty wind of power is working in missions today.
