Maltawear

As a sign of unity (and thanks), we bought the elders working in the office and the assistants look-alike ties from Malta.  The sisters all got Maltese aprons.

Rome West Zone Conference - January 2015

January 28, 2015

Rome West Zone - January 2015

It's time to begin a new round of zone conferences.  The theme this time is "Have Faith, Fear Not".

The Assistants passed out a card to everyone with the following on it:

"I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed.  The dye

has been cast.  i have stepped over the line.  The

decision has been made; I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. 

I won't look back, let up, slow down, or be still.  My

past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my

future is secure.  I'm finished and done with low living, 

small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tinted

visions, worldly talking, cheap giving, and dwarfed

goals.  I no longer need pre-eminence, positions, 

promotions, plaudits, or popularity.  I don't have to be

right, first recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded.  I

now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk with 

patience, am lifted up in prayer, and labor with power.

My face is set, my goal is heaven.  My road is narrow,

my way is rough, my companions few, my guide is

reliable, my mission is clear.  I cannot be bought,

compromised, detoured, lured away, divided or 

delayed, will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate

in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table

with the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or

meander in the maze of mediocrity.  I won't give up,

shut up, or let up until I have stayed up, stored up, and

paid up for the case of Christ.  I must go till He comes,

give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He 

stops me.  When He returns for His own He will have

no problem recognizing me, my banner is clear."
