Missions Conference in Astoria

Bethany Lutheran Church in Astoria, Oregon held a missions conference on Sunday, July 9th.

World Missions Director Del Palmer presented the work of AFLC World Missions at Sunday school. Rev. Palmer also spoke at the morning worship service.

The Majesty Gospel Team from the Association of Free Lutheran Bible School provided special music and testimonies.

This was a special event for the church as Jesse Long, who has been working for the church, was sent to Tanzania on a short term missions trip. Jesse plans to be in Tanzania for at least one year. You can receive Jesse's updates be sending an email to jesseprayerlist-subscribe@lukelong.com

Following the morning services a pot luck was served. Jesse was given a generator to help with his planned ministry needs by the congregation.
