While serving you in this capacity, I am continually humbled by the many opportunities and experiences that I am afforded as I travel.
My biggest regret is that you are not with me and afforded the opportunity of witnessing, first-hand, the missionary/ministry legacy that we have as a church. You would be so proud.
Earlier this month, I was privileged to travel to Budapest, Hungary, and Oradea, Romania.
Just a few quick observations:
• Our missionaries have done and are doing a remarkable job. While in Budapest, I visited The Awakening’s International Base. This is the base that Dave and Linda Fannin envisioned. WMM is now in the process of completing the purchase of this building. Dave and Linda’s ministry imprint is stamped all over Hungary and Romania.
As you talk with the Bulzans, Reshetinskys, and Ms. Revesz, you sense the gratitude and love that these leaders have for the Fannins and the IPHC.
• Do not buy the line that millennials are not engaged and passionate. At EuroQuest, primarily a meeting for young adults/emerging leaders/millennials throughout Europe, I met leaders from 14 different countries that were on fire and sold out for the cause of Christ globally. Some of these leaders include: Max Barroso, Seth Nix, Krisztina Revesz [a disciple of Linda Fannin’s], Timothy Meadors, Janene Wooten, Carolyne Smith, Dreama Bryant, Allison Jones, Hannah Lafferty, Mariah Lumpkin, Morgan Wood, Justin Long, Katie Conrad, Javier Farias, Sarah Minnix, David Burgos, Donald Kumar, Pamela Lujan, Tibi Bulzan, Timotei Bulzan, Zophie Lakatos, Michael Al-Shackar, David Trujillo, and the son and daughter, Valerii and Nadezhda, of Bishop Reshetinsky in the Ukraine.
Believe me when I tell you that I am not worried about our future!
