World Evangelism Conference 2008

This week we are enjoying our World Evangelism Conference with James Zenker as our key speaker. We have also been blessed by meeting Margaret Stringer who was a 24 year old young lady who went to Papua, Indonesia as a missionary. We watched a very moving DVD presentation about her journey into a cannibal land and saw how the Lord used her to lead many jungle people to the Lord who have never even heard the name of Jesus!

We started our conference with a mission banquet. The elementary age kids have their own banquet and "visit" other countries of the world. They are encouraged to dress up like some one from another country. This year, Austin and Alana dressed all the children. We have Austin dressed as a cowboy from Texas (I know that's not another country), Alana was a cowgirl from Australia, Bethany was from a different era (the 50's), Noah was an Indian and Sarah Joy, well, I'm not really sure what she was. Someone said she looked like Esther. I think she looks like she is from another era as well....she looks midevil to me! :)For the adult banquet, there are table captains that are in charge of 1 table. We were table captains this year and therefore we were in charge of table decorations, filling our table with 8 more people and food. We had a great table this year and great Italian food! I had help from a couple ladies that sat at our table, which was a great blessing! Here is my place setting:Here is our whole table with most of the food. Every night a different children's choir sang. This video is from Sunday night and it is the 4th -6th grade choir. So, Austin and Alana are singing in this one. Alana is on the front row in a red striped sweater and Austin is over her right shoulder. Be sure to pause the music on the side so you can hear the kids! We are so grateful to be a part of Temple Baptist Church!!!

While we were waiting for Daddy to come pick us up last night, I got some quick picutres of the kids. Here they are waiting for Alana to bring Jared out.

All 7 kids. Caleb - 11, Austin - 10, Alana - 9, Bethany - 6,
Noah - 4, Sarah Joy - 1 and Jared - 10 weeks.

Just the boys.

Ok, Austin! That's enough!

Caleb says "What are you doing?" Austin goes from one extreme to another! LOL! Caleb decides to try it!
Boys will be boys!Awww, what sweet girls! They were doing good until the neiborhood dog, Abraham, came to say hello!
Thank you for tuning in to the Sikorski family happenings. I appreciate all the comments!

Jeremish 27:5
I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground,
by my great power and by my outstretched arm,
and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.
