More about the Conference:
 
Friday night at 7pm there will be a prayer journaling class for anyone who would like to come- please RSVP for this when you register!

Guest speaker will be Stacie Bostic:

       Stacie is committed to bringing teaching and testimonies that demonstrate the power of God to her community and encouraging others to surrender to God's purpose and experience the joy of allowing Him to manifest in their lives. The Lord has paved an exciting path for Stacie to touch hearts and minds with her testimony that focuses on the art of surrender, walking by faith, and rising above your circumstances. Stacie's message is firmly grounded in the Word of God.
       She loves to engage the hearts and souls of women of all ages by sharing her story and my passion for Jesus. Gathering with women in diverse settings is one of her greatest joys. Because she feels so strongly about praise, worship, and the power of God's word, she founded Girl Power in 2009 in Gun Barrel City, Texas in order to connect "girls of all ages" to God's word and fellowship. Stacie's desire, ultimate and consuming, is to remain Kingdom-focused and to live a transformed life, that she might "prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2) Stacie loves Jesus. Lots.

PASTOR AND DEACON APPRECIATION 

 The writer of Hebrews was inspired to write in Hebrews 12:1, “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight,…and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.”  During the realities of the past six months, our pastors and deacons in our churches have been faced with decisions and challenges never before encountered, challenges which involve literally the health of their precious church families.  Our pastors and deacons have spent countless hours in prayer asking the Lord to help them balance church activities and ministry so as to safeguard the health of their congregation, while finding ways of ministry that would not neglect the spiritual needs of their people. 

Our BMA pastors have sought the Lord and the wise counsel of medical personnel and consulted together to meet these needs, and in doing so, they have demonstrated before us a faith and a testimony that will inspire us throughout our lives.  How faithful they have been!

In strategizing for ways to honor them during Pastor and Deacon Appreciation in October, we are challenged to plan gifts or activities that will honor the guidelines of keeping all safe from exposure to Covid-19, yet show them our love and gratitude for their extraordinary leadership.

The following ideas are ones that every ladies group can expand and use their creativity to implement:
      Card showers are always deeply appreciated.  Including a gift card that can be used online is especially helpful during this time.
      Creating a visual presentation of the pastor or deacons and their families that can be shown in recorded services always becomes a treasured gift.
      Have a vehicle parade by the homes of the pastor and deacons.  Decorate cars or other vehicles to celebrate them and their families.
      Have a testimonial service in which volunteers share special times of blessing about the pastor and deacons and what they mean in their lives.
      Give gifts such as books, home décor, movies, and other items that can be enjoyed by their families and can even be ordered online to be shipped to their homes.

If your church is holding in-person services at this time, then plan a time of testimony and honor that will highlight the church’s appreciation for their pastor and each deacon, while observing the protocols for safety that are currently recommended.

 May the Lord richly bless you as you honor your pastor and deacons this October!
