From Mecca to Calvery
In a new addition to our newsletter, we'll be looking back at various recent evenings over the year at the Bangor Worldwide Missionary Convention.
First up, we look at Thabiti who visited us in 2008! Thabiti led a powerful and challenging series of morning Bible readings entitled ‘Matthew on Mission.’ Thabiti is the senior pastor at First Baptist Church in Grand Cayman. A renowned speaker and author, he is also a former Muslim. After his visit to Bangor, Thabiti said:
“The Olympic theme played out in Beijing, ‘One World One Dream’ was similar to the theme for Worldwide 2008. The emphasis, however, was different – ‘One World One Hope’ proclaims the good news of Jesus Christ as the only hope for a lost world. At Worldwide 2008 I’ve been amazed, humbled and challenged by stories of changed lives through Jesus Christ.“
Don't forget, you can find about more about the 2008 Convention and all that happened over the course of that week, including audio, by visiting our website.
