- Richard B. shared how God is using the North Carolina Baptist Relief Organization to dig wells in India and how they are using this platform as an opportunity for the Gospel. You may not know that the family of Hal Newell made an incredibly generous contribution towards this effort in Hal's honor. Hal was passionate about the nation of India and went on several short term mission trips. Hal passed away last fall after battling cancer.
- We heard an incredible testimony from our friends at Conexion 10/40 about two Cuban nationals that we are sending to the 10/40 window. Conexion 10/40 is a ministry that is partnering Latinos with those seeking to take the Gospel to those that live in teh 10/40 window.
- We also heard an incredible testimony from Mike about how God is using several churches around the country to minister to over 300,000 Arab Muslims living near Detroit, Michigan. This has been a wonderful opportunity for the Gospel amongst Muslims right here in the United States.
This is just the beginning. Keep praying about how God might use you! Pray that God would use this opportunity to interact with field workers to challenge us to see the need like we never have before! Pray that God would raise up those who would give their lives to full time missions!

I thought the Celebration was very moving and hearing about the God's work across the world through these missionaries was great. From the stories to the music, it was all inspiring to be on fire to spread the Good News!
Just wanted to let you know that Brent and I really enjoyed the Global Impact Celebration. Speaking for myself, I know that I have never been to anything like it; being able to meet several missionaries, seeing display tables, etc. We had the pleasure of getting to know Troy from Embrace Baltimore, Keith Summey serving in Jordan, and Otis and Claudell from the Mission Hope Project in Haiti. Also, it was great hearing about the persecuted church last night as a finale of sorts. Thanks to all the Calvary staff who did hours of planning for this event. My eyes have been opened more widely now, and it lived up to the tagline "making missions personal."
