Philippians 1:3-6 (NIV) – “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Greetings Brothers and Sisters in Christ, This has been a year filled with all sorts of challenges for our churches, leaders and disciple makers in the Pacific Northwest. But in the midst of those challenges our God has been faithful to meet our needs and direct our paths. On May 28-29 we are having our Regional Conference at the West Valley Missionary Church in Yakima. Enclosed your will find a tentative schedule, registration form, list of hotels and a map to the church. Please remember that we need the registration forms sent back to us by May 15th. (Please note the April 22nd deadline for the hotel reservation!) As you may have heard this is my last conference as your regional director. I will finish my term on June 30, 2015. This conference is very important as we discuss the future of our region. I hope you will be able to attend. I look forward to seeing you. In His Grip, Rev.
