CMBC To Host Global Outreach Conference BY ANN MEAD ASH
“For people in the community who might be interested in coming … if they have an interest in learning more about the global church and how the Word of God is getting out in different areas, this would be a good opportunity,” said Chris Lenhart, pastor of Calvary Monument Bible Church (CMBC). Lenhart and members of CMBC’s global ministries team are looking forward to the church’s annual Global Outreach Conference, which will be held from Sunday, March 20 through Sunday, March 27, at the church, 1660 Mine Road, Paradise. The event will include electives, prayer time, a youth night, and more. CMBC has partnered with ServeNow and Global Disciples to present the conference, which will kick off on the morning of March 20, with speakers at the 9 a.m. worship service and during Sunday school at 10:30 a.m. At 6 p.m. that evening, a picture report will be
given, and electives will begin at 6:30 p.m. “A picture report is a 30-minute presentation that describes (the speaker’s) ministry environment and explores the obstacles to sharing the Gospel,” explained Lenhart. Speakers will include Ben Foley, Les Yoder, Kendall Keeler, Andy Gordley, Emily Rishel, and Tefera Bekere, among others. Each evening from March 21 through Thursday, March 24, at 7 p.m., speakers from around the world will give presentations. “In most cases (speakers) will be here in person,” shared Lenhart. “A few will be virtual.” Lenhart said that speakers will represent Ethiopia, the Middle East, Uganda, Costa Rica, Asia, Moldova, and Alaska. “Some (speakers) are missionaries, and others provide support for missionaries on the field,” said Lenhart. Also, at 7:30 p.m. each evening from March 21 through 24, two electives will be offered. “One will be in the building only, and the other will be live on youtube and in the building,” explained Lenhart.
