TRAVEL TEAM 2016 RECAP
6 youth with Pastor Tassey and his wife Veronica went down to New Orleans July 17-19 to the National Youth Gathering to co-lead 3 sessions of the Witness Academy with the Synod's Witness, Outreach, and Revitalization ministry,  and at the same time to run the OAFC exhibit booth at the Gathering. 

Day 2 we actually took the participants out for the hour and shared the Gospel using the OAFC Good News cards on the streets of the French Quarter.
 
Over the 4 days of the Gathering, we — let’s give all the credit to 6 youth — handed out 10,000 Good News/OAFC postcards. We    collected contact information from 33 churches that were interested in more information about OAFC. And we got to connect with many alumni who stopped by and were glad to see OAFC still active and sharing the Gospel.

How you can PRAY for us:
* That God would continue to grow faith within the hearts of the youth we train and adults who volunteer.
* That God would open more church doors to host weekends and events in the coming year. 
* That God would bless and use the OAFC interview on KFUO Sep 7th to spread OAFC.
* That God would bless and use the OAFC Workshop at the Rural and Small Town Ministries Conference on Nov 5th to spread OAFC. 
* Thanking God that He so richly blessed us with churches and volunteers to make Summer Training and OAFC across the country work. 
* That God would bless the contacts made in New Orleans so that we could get some new groups started.
