As we sang so powerfully in every Centennial Celebration Service in South Africa – “If you believe<br />

and I believe and we together pray the Holy Spirit will come down and Africa will be saved.” May<br />

we prophetically sing the same song over Turkey - “If you believe and I believe and we together<br />

pray the Holy Spirit will come down and TURKEY will be saved!” May it be so for the Kingdom’s<br />

sake!<br />

QUADRENNIAL CONFERENCE PRESIDING ASSIGNMENTS:<br />

I have had the privilege of serving as the presiding officer for three Annual Conference Sessions<br />

during this reporting period: April 27 th – Mississippi; May 18 th – Upper South Carolina; <strong>June</strong> 8 th –<br />

Rocky Mountain.<br />

It remains a humbling experience to lay hands on Ordinands and set them apart for service as<br />

ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.<br />

My thanks to Bishops Moore, Boggs, and Herrera for honoring me with the privilege of serving them<br />

and their Conferences.<br />

I continue to find more personal and professional fulfillment in these ministry assignments than<br />

anything else I do.<br />

GREAT COMMISSION MEALS:<br />

What a privilege it has been to participate in several Great Commission Meals during this reporting<br />

period. These meals provide World Missions with the opportunity to cast vision and share our<br />

passion for reaching the lost on a very personal level. I am very grateful to Rev. Cofer and Mrs.<br />

Keisha Gordon for the outstanding job they do in coordinating these times of fellowship and<br />

promotion for World Missions Ministries.<br />

<strong>2013</strong> WMM PASSPORT:<br />

Harold, Steve, Matt, Judy, and Sherri are to be commended for the week long training session that<br />

WMM recently hosted on the campus of Southwestern Christian University, May 20-24. One of the<br />

on-going prayers of WMM is to ‘…Ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.’<br />

Luke 10:2 [NRSV]. I am very encouraged by the ministry potential of this crop of ‘laborers’. Their<br />

availability, sensitivity to the work of the Lord and passion for reaching those who have never<br />

heard the gospel message is admirable. I am confident that they will bear fruit in the future.<br />
