Missions Breakfast 2016

Our annual Missions Breakfast yesterday at the Academy of Medicine was a deep encouragement to all who attended. In addition to the delicious breakfast and time of lively fellowship, we were stimulated by three full presentations of Mission and Ministry (see below), followed by an update on the mission at the House of Hope in Nicaragua given by Dr. Chris Borghi-Cavallaro and many exhortations to serve. If you would like to contact any of the speakers listed below or in the linked flyer, just look them up in our Directory! 1/23/16 Missions Presentations Chase Miller, MD – Otolaryngology in...
