Truth Connect was in Nassau, Bahamas to train church leaders in September, 2016. Dr. Cherelus Exante and the New Haitian Mission Baptist Church hosted the 4 day Leadership Training Conference (LTC). I had the privilege to teach local pastors, seminarians, and church leaders who were enthusiastic students. The LTC curriculum focus was
Leadership Principles of Israel's Shepherd - Kings. One key idea that captured the hearts of the participants was, "
You do what you do because you think what you think. To do better you must think better." It is a simple but powerful truth. Truth Connect's training helps leaders to think better so they can lead better.
I have worked in the Bahamas since 1993 and therefore have plenty of friends and associates I visit when I can.
Tim & Felicia Ryan are missionaries from Wisconsin. They serve at All Saints Camp, a care facility for residents experiencing difficult life circumstances or terminal illnesses. They are God's special caretakers. The
Bazile Family oversee a Haitian church in Nassau and direct a church and school in Cap Haitien, Haiti. Alley and Keshner have birthdays a month apart and we celebrated at McDonalds with happy meals and ice-cream.
