Sister Connie Saffle served with the blessings.

 

Connie Saffle and her husband Mike Saffle serve in Congregational Leadership at  Shalom Adonai Messianic Fellowship, in Wichita, KS. Connie gave the Or Shabbat Candle Lighting Blessing on Erev Shabbat.  

Mike and Connie also did the Havdalah Blessing

Rabbi Mike Saffle gave the Erev Shabbat teaching on Friday evening.

 

Mike Saffle served as the SBMF President for the last three years.  Brother Mike gave a message to charge the members to make disciples.  Mike used Exodus 18 where Moses was charged to disciple others to help with the work of leadership.  Verse 20 tells us to teach G-d's Word rather than just answering questions about His Word.  


Dr. Sam Nadler Spoke About Discipleship on Shabbat morning

 

Brother Sam spoke on Discipleship, using a balanced Messianic approach, specifically related to congregation planting.

The teaching blessed our hearts and gave us lots of tools for our ministry tool boxes.  He spoke about discipleship in the home and in the congregation. Discipleship starts at home.


Mary Chase spoke about ministry in Russia

 

Sister Mary Chase served the Southern Baptist Convention for several years in Russia.

She came attend the SBMF Annual Meetings and we asked her to speak about that service to the Russian people group in Russia.

Marry has served all over the world and she is about to serve in Israel after a short vacation here in the USA.  It was a blessing to see Mary again and hear what has been going on in her ministry.


Brother Herbby Gear spoke on Saturday evening.

 

Brother Herbby is the Southern Baptist Convention's representative serving in Israel.  He came to bring us a wonderful message about discipleship and how it impacts the people we serve.  He spoke about preparedness, illustrating the "Armor of G-d".  He also spoke about his work  in Israel and his love for the Jewish people.


The SBMF Annual Meeting Music Worship Leaders were:

Worship Leader Stuart Lee, accompanied by Gwenn and Ric Worshill.

 

Brother Stuart led the worship and did a wonderful job of bringing us to our spirits.  He was assisted by Brother Ric Worshill and Sister Gwenn Worshill.

The music style was contemporary messianic music and the songs were commonly used in messianic congregations all over the world.

The SBMF Booth Project - News Flash & Praise Report

Baruch Ha'Shem Yeshua (Praise the Name of Jesus)

 

The North American Mission Board and the Southern Baptist Convention, Executive Committee, blessed the Southern Baptist Messianic Fellowship. They provided us with space in a booth on the exhibit floor.  This booth was provided for all the ethnic ministries of the SBC.  The booth was called "The many Faces Exhibit of the SBC" .  This booth was located right across from the North American Mission Board Booth and next to the SBC.net Television recording area.  We were around the corner from the International Mission Board Booth.

 

This booth project was a success.  We made several connections with new friends in the SBC.  We spoke to numerous church members and visitors to the SBC exhibit floor.  We also learned how to make our part of the booth more attractive to passers by for next year.

 

We were in the booth with other ethnic and language groups.  These are some of the SBC ethnic groups that were in the booth with us.  The SBC Hispanic Fellowship, The North American African Fellowship SBC, The Mong Fellowship, The Chinese Fellowship, and the Philippine Fellowship.

 

The blessing is that the SBC Executive Committee and the North American Mission Board paid for the booth and it's decorations.  They supplied us with couches, lounge chairs, tables, and high stools for the high tables.  There was carpeting that had thick padding under it and a wonderful display illustrating the many people groups in the SBC.

 

We thank the North American Mission Board and the Southern Baptist Convention, Executive Committee, for blessing us in such a powerful way.

 

Brother Ken Weathersby and all the members of the Church Planting Group of NAMB have helped us so much.  Please keep them and our continued partnership in your prayers.

News Flash & Praise Report:       We had a pleasant surprise while we were serving in the "The many Faces Exhibit of the SBC" on the exhibit floor.  We were invited to be interviewed on the SBC.net TV program.  Brothers Bruce Stokes, Mike Saffle and I were interviewed in a panel setting. 

 

 

 

 

 

Each one of us was asked questions about our fellowship and the ministries that are affiliated with us.  The above photos illustrate each one of us talking on camera.  We were told that a DVD of the interview will be available soon.  If we can we will stream it on this site.

 

The North American Mission Board and the SBC Executive Committee would like all Southern Baptists to know about the ethnic and language ministries that are affiliated with the SBC.  Each group of SBC ethnic and language groups was invited to be interviewed so all Southern Baptists would experience who we are and how we can help the SBC in reaching all people groups. 


SBMF Business Meeting To Be Published Soon

 

The minutes of the meeting will be published as soon as Sister Connie Saffle arrives home to transcribe them for publication.


 

The L-rd bless you, and watch over you; The L-rd make His face shine on you, and be gracious to you;  The L-rd lift up His countenance on you, and give you peace.   [Numbers 6:24-26]
