WorldVenture Live in 3D Recap
A casual, “dessert evening” of ministry presentations and
fellowship, as well as an introduction to those new to the mission,
by all accounts WorldVenture’s June 22 public Community Event in
Denver was a smashing success.
The nearly 400 guests who attended
WorldVenture’s Live in 3D public event check out their 3D
glasses.
Held in conjunction with our annual missionary Renewal Conference (RC) week, WorldVenture Live in 3D: Discover Your Calling, Develop Your Gifts, Declare the Gospel, was attended by nearly 400 people, including WorldVenture board members, staff, missionaries, alumni and guests. The program started off with a bang as WorldVenture missionaries Ken and Bola Taylor quickly had the audience on its feet, clapping and singing along with several black gospel music favorites, including Amazing Grace, sung by their Hallelujah Gospel Family choirs in Japan. This creative, and some might say “unlikely,” outreach the Taylors are using to reach the Japanese people has grown to over 40 such choral groups with 700-plus participants—80% of whom are “not yet Christians.” Ken and Bola were here to be acknowledged as the 2010 recipients of The Mission Exchange’s prestigious Innovation in Ministry award at the RC’s Recognition Luncheon—the first WorldVenture missionaries to be so honored. The event also featured missionary interviews with Hans Finzel, a challenging missions message from Dr. Mark Young, president of Denver Seminary, worship music, video presentations and 3D glasses, which the audience gladly dawned for a group photo (shown above).
Afterwards, guests were invited to have coffee and sample international desserts as they mingled with each other and browsed the numerous ministry booths lining the room. Exceeding all expectations, Hans declared it “a huge success.” We thank the Lord for so richly blessing this effort, and are trusting to see the fruit of relationships formed and lives touched by it in the days ahead.
