A personal invitation

Please consider this your personal invitation to attend the Southwestern Union Ministries Convention on August 21-24, 2008. This year, our ministries team has prepared a whole buffet of ministry training seminars, a wide selection of presentations that will bless you personally and strengthen your ministries in your home church.

This convention is one of my favorite events in our union. It is both inspiring and humbling to spend a weekend with folks who give unselfishly of their time and energy all year long to reach out to their communities and to make their churches a place where both children and adults feel secure, welcome, and blessed.

If you attended our convention two years ago, you remember the excitement of being together with so many dedicated people, so many who were searching for ways to serve the Lord. You’ll remember the inspiration that flowed through the halls through both music and words. If you were there two years ago, I know you’ll be back. If you weren’t, don’t miss out this time.

Join me this August at our ministries convention, won’t you? Come together with your union church family and you’ll find yourself refreshed, strengthened, and blessed.

Max A. Trevino, Southwestern Union president
