Take Up the Baton

Recenly, our big national clubhouse hosted a conference reminding all of us of the need to "yarp", give, and go. The event included booths from a variety of sending organizations, seminars led by specialists (including Jack), a choir (including Esther), a parade of flags, reports from past outings, food, an incredible drama about the life of Hudson Taylor, special "yarp" times, messages, and a call of commitment to full time and short term service. It was incredible to see so many of our national friends step forward to take up the baton and carry the GOOD NEWS throughout every part of the world.
