The Mission Office team put together yet another phenomenal missions-focused service at the September National Meeting in Owasso, Oklahoma last month. It was an exciting meeting packed with missionary approvals, recognitions for years of service, numerous missions-focused video presentations and  congregational singing.  One of our BBFI Creative Access Missionaries (CAN) delivered a  heart-touching message about reaching Displaced People Groups (DPGs) around the world. Everyone in attendance surely left the meeting with a renewed vision for missions.
