SAVE THESE DATES: April 19-23, 2010
Mindful of the growing range of issues and challenges confronting God’s workers in the Muslim world, Frontiers’ Member Care staff is presenting its 2010 Member Care Symposium next spring in Phoenix, AZ.
With God’s blessing, this event will recognize and add value to the partnership that exists between Frontiers and sending churches.
You can count on a dynamic, interactive, sharing event … not just lectures.
