Here's some photos of the
North American Christian Convention, which was held in Kansas City last week.
Here's a shot of one half of the
exhibit hall (the half with the eating area). The convention center was so large that it's hard to get many long-distance perspective shots like this.
Here's a shot from the other end looking back (with
Lincoln (Ill.) Christian College and Seminary in the foreground). Almost every type of missionary, Bible College, Church planting organization, and ministry was represented here. Resources of every kind are available and it's a great opportunity to see and learn about different
ministries happening locally and around the world.
Here's my friend and
college roommate, Nathan, at his booth explaining the ins and outs of his ministry.
Narrow Roads Ranch Ministries ministers to children through horsemanship and dog training. How neat is that?
Here are four boys I happen to know hanging out with some
dinosaurs. Brennan especially was impressed at the sight of these large fossils and I appreciated the number of
scientists who attended the convention, led workshops and seminars, and spoke about their faith. I was also exceedingly pleased with the children's portion of the convention. My boys were each split up when we placed them in the
child care for four and half hours and they loved it!
It was also a good to see
missionaries and people you don't get to see very often. Pictured above is
Dr. Ronald Rife and his wife Doris, who have worked for several years in Ghana, Africa. They are the parents of our friend Pam, who goes to our church.
