Evangelism Conference 2006

Over the last decade the Algonquin Evangelism Conference has been one of the best ministries to church leaders in our Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches. Well over three hundred pastors and lay leaders took part in this year's conference held in beautiful St. Andrew's by the sea! Together, we joined for worship, fellowship and the inspiring teaching of pastor and author Brian McLaren.
What impressed us most was the humility of Brian as he lived out before our eyes that which he came to share. Every session focused as much on meeting questions from the floor as it did Brian's own prepared messages. There was an incredible spirit of openness, grace and compassion that filled our time together. The HOPE of the gospel of the resurrected Jesus Christ was everywhere!


We were thrilled to discover from Brian that he will be coming to Kenya next year to join a gathering of Church leaders in Eastern Africa. It was a pleasure to learn from this fellow apprentice of Christ!

Nice pictures, what IS Wayne doing in it? What a great time, did you get back to your room in time to watch "Lost"? We never did get pizza, oh well, next time. Take care! Angie

Hey Angie!

We did see "Lost" and it was a great episode. We were sorry that we didn't get to spend more time with you and Wayne; my cheeks are just recovering from laughing! We hope to see you again soon!
