A few of us attended Missionfest Manitoba's youth & young adult kick-off tonight at Immanuel Pentecostal. Local band Six5One started the evening by leading the packed sanctuary (seriously, the place was packed; there's nothing quite like the smell of 2,000 sweaty teenagers :S) in Worship. Be sure to check out their Myspace in the link above. Juno award winner, and also local gal, Amanda Falk, closed the evening in worship. In between these amazingly talented musicians we were blessed to listen to the special guest speaker, George Verwer. George shared his testimony, and was open & honest about his own struggles in life, how God continued to use him through these struggles, and how God has kept him humble. He also reminded us that we can be missionaries in a variety of ways, using whatever gifts God has given us, and that a mission field doesn't necessarily have to be half-a-world-away. Take a visit to George's website here.
Blessings
