Concordia Mission institute

The group met for Concordia Mission Institute 
this past week- July 9-15, 2022 in 
Concordia, Missouri.
This gathering happens yearly to train, 
encourage, educate and grow the teams of
 Lutheran Bible Tanslators and Mission of Christ Network.

Pat Maier and myself were invited to share
 about Visual Faith® Ministry
 and to lead the group to explore 
the practices of Visual Prayer.
Trying some Visual Prayer practices here.
This gathering includes the lay people 
that serve in mission settings 
around the world. 
They are an amazing group of faithful leaders
 with servant hearts..
Husband,John, and friend, David Maier,
 are always planning some kind of ministry alliance.
 St. Paul Lutheran Church is part of a 
beautiful campus in downtown Concordia.
St. Paul Lutheran High School is a residential school right
 in Concordia, Missouri and the site for the CMI conference.
It is also the home for Lutheran Bible translators.
An evening walk allowed us to meet townsfolk 
and also admire the plants flourishing
 in the hot, and dry summer.
1 John 4 was the selection for
 the Biblical centering for our week together.
God is Love.
We are God's Beloved.
We are perfectly loved.
God ABIDES in us
 and Hs love is perfected in us.
And we KNOW that the Son of God
 has come and given us His understanding.

Margins in the Enduring Word Bible.
