How many times have we heard or even said this phrase;
"There will never be another one like it ever!" ? I think that is most precise description for the recently held
ABC Missionary Retreat last July 26-29, 2016 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Just that;
"There will never be another one like it ever!" It doesn't mean that we have already seen the grandest time of our life because as long as God is alive and the Lord tarries His coming, we will see more greater times of fellowship with and among our fellow servants of the Lord. It's just that;
"There will never be another one like it ever!" It's just a wonderful blessing being a part of the
ABC Missionary Retreat 2016.
It was a tremendous gathering of 51 missionary families from 18 different countries. 160+ were together for a three night two day meeting for fellowship and recharging. We met in Phnom Penh, Cambodia July 26-28. I truly love being with the ABC family. Thank you for bringing me such joy. --- Asian Baptist Clearinghouse (post by Rev. Paul Byars, ABC Director.
