Olivet Assembly USA and Canada Conference Begins in New York

On June 19th, the United States and Canada Mission Conference began with the 9 am opening service delivered by Olivet Assembly USA President Gerald Helguero. The conference is being held in New York, with mission leaders and missionaries attending from all currently active US states. This conference marks the halfway point of the calendar year towards the General Assembly held in October.

The opening service was taught from Proverbs 8:14, which emphasizes the wisdom of being prudent and giving thoughts to each person's ways, while also recognizing the folly of deception. The sermon sought to put into context the results of the mission by letting the participants first establish the grace of God in Jesus Christ as their foundation.

"When we look at December 2017, we want to be standing only in the grace of God, not on what we have done," Pastor Helguero explained. Attendees expressed gratitude to once again gather together and share with one another how God is moving in their mission fields and how they plan to grow in the coming months.

Following the opening service, lectures were given about the history and the importance of knowing the past events and workings of God in the church. Participants could know and examine what God has done and be reminded how they are co-working together for the Kingdom of God continuously, with the gracious history guiding them.

The remaining week's schedule will have mission leaders presenting about their state's mission activity, including activity and development in Olivet Centers across the country. U.S. Mission is currently looking forward to completing once again the full map of 50 states and also adding the ten Canadian provinces to the mission field. U.S. and Canada's region is also part of the global region seeking to reach 100,000 members in the coming 3 years.

Please pray that all the attendees may receive wisdom, vision, and strength to unite in one heart for revealing the power of the Holy Spirit during the conference which ends this Thursday.
