Conference at SWU has missional focus
Chad McCallum, director of Mobilization for Global Partners, the missions arm of The Wesleyan Church, speaks to a chapel Nov. 6 during a missions conference at Southern Wesleyan University at Central Nov. 4 – 6.
The theme, “Go Stand Near,” was taken from the book of Acts, when the Holy Spirit instructed Philip to go stand near the chariot of the Ethiopian, who was reading from Isaiah and needed someone to explain it to him. Representatives from various mission organizations, including Global Partners, Youth With A Mission, Operation Mobilization, New Tribes Mission, One Mission Society, Network of International Christian Schools and the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention were on campus sharing information about opportunities open to students to share the gospel worldwide.
