Greetings friends…

I’m looking forward to being with you at our District Conference on the Ministry at Abbotsford Pentecostal Assembly,

on March 12-14, 2012. My heart is filled with expectancy, spiritual hunger and passion to receive a renewed touch of God’s supernatural power during these days together. Please join me in prayer, as we prepare ourselves to

encounter the power of our living God once again.

This year’s conference theme is, “Equipped to do His Will”, which is based on a passage from Hebrews 13:20-21:

“May the God of peace, who, through the blood of the eternal covenant, brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep; equip you with everything good for doing His will, and may He work in us what is pleasing to Him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.” NIV

As you know, each ministry leader in our District carries the responsibility of our shared vision and mission. We are a

missional family that deeply values each person as a special gift from God for His local church. Make no mistake; you’re invited to our conference this year in order to contribute, share, and participate; and to receive a supernatural

touch from God!

Let me encourage you to register for our District Conference, as soon as possible. The first 280 registrants will receive a welcome package containing a book from Dr. Reggie McNeal or Dr. Ted Roberts (our plenary speakers).

For more information on how to register, please visit our website www.bc.paoc.org.

We’re better together,

Pastor Ken
