On Sunday, September 24th, we were excited to host Baptist General Conference missionary Laura Russell! Laura serves in Tucumán, Argentina and is discipling the next generation of leaders. She works with ABUA (Asociación Bíblica Universitaria Argentina), her local church, and teaches at a local Bible School. Laura has been serving long-term in Argentina since 2007. She preached on Psalm 13 on the theme of Lament. We also heard about the issues that the Argentinian church is facing and the growth it is experiencing. We learned more about how we can pray specifically for Laura and her team.

On Sunday, August 27th, we heard from special guest speaker Connie Main Duarte who is the co-general secretary of the European Evangelical Alliance, as well as being a missionary with the Baptist General Conference.   Connie looked at Psalms 137 and 40. Both are songs of lament, but they are very different in tone. Psalm 137 is full of anger, sadness, hopelessness, and frustration. It was written by people who were in exile in Babylon. Psalm 40 was God-breathed through David. David also laments his circumstances, but he is still filled with hope in the power of a loving God. He knows that God is good and is victorious. God wants to hear about our difficult circumstances, but He also wants us to place our hope in Him. What song will you sing when the going gets tough?

This interview with seasoned missionaries Dennis Beck and Mark Downing explores how missionaries can prepare for their retirement years. About Dennis Beck: As an international missionary with Campus Crusade for Christ (branded as Cru in the USA) in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) for 38 years, Dennis was asked to move from student ministry to administrative roles as the 20 countries devolved in 1991. As Area Financial Manager his challenge was to bring order out of the post-communist chaos introducing financial systems, western style accounting and auditing skills across the 20 national ministries involving 800 staff. He introduced retirement savings plans for those same CEE staff, starting with Poland in 1994. He continues to teach retirement seminars and to facilitate individualized sessions with his missionary colleagues. About Mark Downing: He is currently enjoying retirement after serving 26 years in Brazil with the Baptist General Conference, now called Converge. After language school, he began teaching Greek and New Testament courses in a seminary in Campo Grande, near the middle of the country, training pastors and missionaries. After doing that for 10 years he did some retooling to help start a missions degree at the seminary. After directing the Missions Department and teaching missions for another five years, he then transferred to Rio de Janeiro to help launch the world missions training center of the Brazilian Baptist Convention where he served as one of the coordinators for another 10 years. He and his wife helped to train more than 350 Brazilian Baptist Convention world missionaries. Mark has been married to Helen for 54 years and they have three children and four grandchildren.
