This coming week we will have our FamilyLife Staff Conference, but this year we get to be part of something bigger! The Global Summit is a chance for all of our international staff to join us here in Little Rock. They participate in our staff conference, but also for extra days just for them. We will be hosting an international couple as they come to town Sunday through Saturday.
FamilyLife Global Outreach is so vital to fulfilling the Great Commission, and for sharing God’s plan for marriages and families around the world.
You’ve heard it said before: There’s not a more important issue in the world than family, and not a more common language than family.
“The language of family” may transcend international borders, but families in every tongue, tribe, and nation still need help – just like in the U.S. our Global department is serving God in amazing ways as they foster networks of people who then multiply their faith in their homes and communities, all with limited resources and staff, most who are volunteers.
Our global partners are a dedicated group. Some in closed countries or who minister in “hard soil” risk their safety each day to spread the message of the Gospel. Many couples who are coming do so at great personal sacrifice, including leaving their children behind as they travel across the ocean.
Join with us in praying that we are able to make our visitors comfortable and that they would be encouraged by their time here!
