Subject: Help us bring Kinko & Andrea to Triennial 2016
Triennial is
here...almost! If you haven't yet registered for Quench, which will be in
Kansas City, MO, July 28-31, visit www.covchurch.org/triennial to
get more information and to register!
We have the honor of
helping a Sister in Christ, currently living in Japan, travel to Kansas City to
attend Triennial XV! Kinko Hiyoshi will be traveling to Seattle, WA, to meet up
with a Covenant Missionary to Japan, Andrea Johnson. Together they will
attend Triennial and experience God's grace and power among women from every
Conference in the Evangelical Covenant Church and woman from around the world
who are sponsored by each Conference.
The East Coast
Conference Office is contributing $1500 toward the expenses for Kinko &
Andrea with a challenge for our Conference women to match this. Expenses
include air fare, hotel, ground transportation, Triennial fee, meals, etc.
Following Triennial,
Kinko & Andrea will travel out here to visit churches within our Conference.
We need your help to
make this a reality. What can you do?
- Please pray for safe travels
for Kinko & Andrea, and for them to see evidence of God's love for
them throughout this journey.
- Please consider making a contribution
to help us meet the challenge...take an offering, hold a fundraiser, get
creative! You can send contributions to Cathy Fredlund, 298 Valley View
Road, Thomaston, CT 06787. Checks payable to WMECC, note for Kinko &
Andrea.
- Please let us know if your
church would like to welcome Kinko & Andrea for a visit during the
first two weeks of August. We would need to coordinate timing and possible
host homes and transportation throughout the Conference depending on the
churches interested and able to arrange a visit.
As women of the
Evangelical Covenant Church, it is our mission to make and deepen disciples of
Jesus Christ. We have the privilege of stepping up to glorify our LORD.
