Dr. Bill Lawrence gave beautiful messages - definitely a highlight of Camino Convocation
Now to just put them into practice in our daily lives....
A new president installed, Doug Livingston. What a blessing to see not only fellow "gringos" up there praying for him and his wife, but fellow Latinos! We are GLOBAL now, Camino Global, working side by side with our Latino brothers and sisters.
Quite a task getting so many people in one photo! Yes, I'm there - it's anyone's guess where!
Lots of humor.
The absolute best humorous moment was when our new president was about to speak.
Suddenly Whitney Huston blasted us with I will love you always (I think I got that title right)
as two very large bodyguards (Jim Eberline and Tim Nelson) with dark glasses and radios
placed themselves in front of our president, carefully guarding him.
I don't know how they kept a straight face!!
And I'm wondering if Doug knew about this beforehand!
A challenge by our outgoing president, Dan Wicher.
His humility and love for the Lord brought tears to my eyes.
May God bless him and Sue richly as they continue serving the Lord.
Affinity groups (workshops?) on subjects of great interest to all of us.
Here Jenny Adams leads us in a discussion on women's ministry.
I wanted to attend all the groups - we all did,
so we will be receiving the outlines of all the groups -
that will be so helpful.
Amazing scenery at the YMCA camp as well as Rocky Mountain National Park.
I've already shown you some pictures - this is just an example of
God's amazing handiwork.
A gift from our Latino hermanos, presented to Doug Livingston by Gustavo Sosa.
It is made out of a coffee tree trunk, and as you
can see, it pictures a humble coffee grower. It was made in Costa Rica which
was the original field of ministry for Central America Mission back in 1891.
The mission has gone from initially reaching into coffee-growing Costa Rica to
now developing a coffee enterprise to fund missions ministry via Honduran
coffee and the ministry called Hope Coffee.
No words needed!
Kids!
And there were LOTS of them!
Here are the teens after presenting us with some very creative skits
The Y provided a fantastic program for the younger kiddos.
Everyone had a ball - I know my grandkids Cameron and Dayton did!
Amazing music and worship time with Dick and Mel Tunney.
Wow!! Could Dick make that keyboard sing!
They were a special blessing to me!
That barely touches the surface!
How about seeing dear friends from our Candidate school back in '67?
(Gene and Sylvia Lambright and Charlie and Coral Nelson)
How about earing fascinating stories told by Helen Ekstrom? She's been serving
with CAM for 61 years. She and Dave her husband (who is now in heaven) were one of the very first
couples Ken and I knew with CAM - how they encouraged us!
Not really believing Vilma Ramaly is the age she claims to be - she looks so young!!
And Marievelia Berger claims she's over 70 - hard to believe
Beautiful ladies not just physically, but in every way!
Rooming with Harriet Bouchillon - it's been a long time since we worked
together with our husbands in Guadalajara! What sweet memories!
Gathering with my long-distance team...
Rich and Sara Musgrave now in Nebraska...
Dennis and Sharon Kirsher in Canada....
Paul and Grace Becker now in Illinois....
and me in San Juan del Rio, Mexico!
OK, lots more highlights, but that's enough for now!
As our hermano from Mexico said, "See you next year!
I wish!
