Everybody has a story. That story, if kept inside and not given the freedom to be shared, can hinder us. If the story is a positive, good one, we share to bless others, give them hope and give praise to God together. After all, Psalm 107:2 (NIV) tells us, "Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story."
If the story has some hard twists and turns, it's even more important to share it. We need a safe place to talk with others who understand the difficulties of healing and forgiveness, or even to just spend time with others who understand.
With that in mind, on September 15–17, Indian Life Ministries will coordinate the Every Story Matters . . . Including Yours conference at the Don Ross Centre in North Battleford, Saskatchewan.
The purpose is to create a space for those who attend to hear other people's stories, how they were impacted, and how they found hope, healing and honor restored to them. Special guests Cliff and Liza Bird, Conrad Flett, Kirby James and Milly Jackson will share their personal stories. The greatest story ever known will be taught and conferees will have the opportunity to share their stories. Kene and Milly Jackson will minister in music and lead worship.
All are invited-those who could use some encouragement and those who have encouragement to offer. Those who could use some conversation, and those who just want to listen. Those who follow the Lord God and those who do not.
The conference is offered at no cost. For questions, contact: Director@indianlife.org or 1-800-665-9275.
Each person attending will procure his or her own lodging and meals.
We invite you to also pray for this event. Pray for the town of North Battleford. Pray for the powers and principalities of this dark world to be pushed back and for the light of Jesus Christ to break through. Pray that hearts will be healed by the blood of Jesus and the Word of people's testimony. Pray for the ILM staff, the speakers, and the volunteer staff. Pray for unity, for health, and for financial provision (each conference costs an average of $5,000).
We look forward to seeing you there!
