NAF ON THE MOVE!

Thank you for praying for us as your NAF executive team met at the Penn Valley Church April 30 for our quarterly meeting. God gave us a great time of prayer together as we considered how He would have us move forward during the year. Let me briefly update you on what we discussed and accomplished during our time:

> Heard from Willis Frank, our secretary/treasurer, that we more than covered our expenses for the annual meeting and celebration March 18 in Telford at Penn Valley Church.

> Reviewed our purpose as a regional fellowship of churches: To encourage and unite NAF churches in obeying Christ's command: Make disciples of all the nations (Matthew 28:16-20).

> Reviewed our individual responsibilities on the team, and gave our vision and goals for the year.

> Heard some exciting plans from Dan Travis, moderator-elect, for next year's celebration.

> Heard some a big vision for the following year from Steve Galegor, 2nd moderator.

> Discussed briefly my challenge for the year: Each NAF church bring a daughter church to conference next year. I will be working over and communicating regarding two matters: (1) the application process to become an NAF church and (2) how do we define or decide that we have a "church."

> Chris Skowronek (Centerpoint Community Church, Berlin, CT) has agreed to head a task force which will explore aggressive and visionary church planting in New England.

> We will meet next July 16 @ 10:00 a.m. in Myerstown, PA in the facilities of New Beginnings GBC.

Let’s keep praying and working.

Yours for discipling the nations from the northern Atlantic, Dan Jackson, Moderator
