We are honored to host our esteemed friend, Dr. Conrad Mbewe from Zambia, in our home this week. He arrived safely this afternoon from Arkansas shortly after we returned home from Tennessee.

In addition to teaching a few classes for me this week, you are invited to attend three of his speaking occasions with us: (1) our Puritan Reformed Seminary chapel this week Wednesday morning at 10:00 a.m. (2965 Leonard NE, Grand Rapids); (2) our church service tomorrow (Tuesday) evening at 540 Crescent, NE, Grand Rapids, at 7:15 p.m., where he will be preaching; and (3) his informational meeting on the African Christian University (a ministry that he is deeply involved in promoting), on Thursday evening at our seminary at 7:00 p.m.

Pray that God will bless all the addresses and meetings he is leading this week to His own glory and the maturation of His people.

On our way home now after spending a special weekend with the folk at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Kingsport, Tennessee, where I preached six times on solus Christus and did a QA time with some young people (see picture above), and had some very special meals/visits with several of the ministers and elders and their families.

From left to right in the picture above, are Pastor Rob Dykes (newly ordained as senior pastor of this flock), Pastor Brent Bradley (who is preaching his farewell sermon this coming Lord’s Day after serving this flock for 38 years!), and Pastor Steven Warhurst (who is in year 20 of serving this flock).
