During January: 
Altogether we have had the privilege of leading 61 people to Jesus since the first of the year! These decisions have occurred in 5 Sunday morning worship services at various churches, 2 Power Lunches, and the National Archery Trade Association (ATA) Convention. God is truly moving. I want to say thank you to each of you who are helping us help others encounter Jesus. If you have not yet taken time to share your story regarding how you came to know Jesus, please take time to record it on our website, www.tellyourstory.today.
     
As I sat down to write this article, I received an email from our web site administrator indicating that 3 people prayed to receive Jesus listening to someone's story on the website just today. What an opportunity to use technology and sound media to help people encounter Jesus.

We are planning a Promise of Hope mission trip to Argentina to work with the Criollo people of northern Argentina from June 20-30. If you are interested in going with us, please contact Patti Kimble at 501-620-3134. She will share the details of the trip with you and get you in touch with DeAnna Terry, our team coordinator. We will not only be working to plant a church among the Criollo people, but we will be working with a local school as well. We will coordinate all ministry initiatives directly with David Holt, our IMB missionary in the area, who works with Promise of Hope to insure that we are working within the intentional evangelism strategy he has developed for engaging this people group. 
     
February 23-24 the Kentucky Baptist Convention will be hosting its 3rd annual RISK (Reaching into the State of Kentucky) Conference. It serves as the state's evangelism conference for the year. This year's conference will follow the Q Conference format with brief, specifically targeted messages on how to effectively engage the culture with the gospel. Our speakers include: Paul Chitwood, Ronnie Floyd, Alex Himaya, Gabe Lyons, Brian Mills, Albert Mohler, Russell Moore, Trillia Newbell, Frank Page, Vic Sholar, Ed Stetzer, and TC Taylor. Worship will be led by Isaac Frasure from Highview Baptist Church, Louisville and Jason Stewart of the Kentucky Baptist Convention. I would invite you to join us in Louisville, Kentucky to learn how you can help even more people encounter Jesus. For additional information and to register, visitwww.kybaptist.org/risk
