(10/2/2014) The 2014 missions conference at Clearwater Christian College, Pathways to the World: Celebrating CCC Alumni, highlighted alumni of the college who help spread the gospel of Jesus Christ around the world.Clik here to view.
Featured alumni speakers included Diana Joss ('89) serving with Child Evangelism Fellowship in the Middle East, Andrew Shields ('00) involved in church planting and Bible institute ministries in Mexico with Banner of Faith Ministries and Phil K., serving in a church planting among Greek nationals, as well as to a growing congregation of Iranian refugees who have fled their country due to persecution.
K. was the conference featured speaker in chapel Wednesday through Friday. He encouraged us to realize this endeavor is not an exercise associated with guilt but in reality our participation in the eternal plan of God to produce faithful worshippers from all tribes, nations and people. On Friday, he spoke from scripture to the issue of persecution and trials to underline the reality that this is one of the chief ways to proclaim the gospel message and illustrated this from the example of Paul and other believers he has already met through his ministry.
Joining Joss, Shields and K. for a panel discussion on Friday morning were Travis Mitten ('94) with Bible Basic International serving in Honduras and Marta Galdamez ('06) who serves with International Partnership Ministries in support services and deaf ministries. In addition to alumni, representatives from 20 different agencies joined our conference as exhibitors, classroom presenters and spiritual mentors. Throughout the conference, a PowerPoint ran prior to chapel and on the screen in the dining hall showing photos of over 40 alumni families serving around the world.
