Winter Olympics 2010
On Friday, February 19th twenty-one people from South Carolina, including 6 from our own association will board a plane for Vancouver to participate in the More Than Gold mission experience at the 2010 Winter Olympics. During this 10 day trip, we will have the opportunity to be involved in several different ministries including hospitality ministries such as handing out water and hot coffee, working the hospitality booths at parking lots, talking with people in the crowd at some of the street performance events and then lots of one on one evangelism as we ride the bus, wait in lines and just go about our days. The following people are going from SRBA.
Larry Leming – SRBA staff
Pat Nolan – BCOB
Richard Spearman – St. Helena
Bob Valentine – St. Helena/Hunting Island Chaplain
Mary Ellen Hill – 1st Bluffton
Jan Oliver – 1st Bluffton
Listed below are some prayer requests for this mission experience. Thank you in advance for praying for us and for those who live in or will visit Vancouver during these winter games.
- Please pray for safe travels for our teams and all the others that will be ministering there
- Pray that new doors of ministry will continue to open in Vancouver and the surrounding areas
- Pray that the people will be receptive to the good news we are going to share
- Pray that we will be obedient to God as he calls us to minister in a wide variety of ways
- Pray that the existing evangelical community in Vancouver will feel encouraged by our help and will be renewed in their commitment to reaching their world after we are gone
