ANNUAL CONFERENCE A GREAT SUCCESS!
This past June, the A2Z team returned to Zimbabwe for our annual conference. The team on this trip consisted of Pastor Paul Ogle (Atchison, Kansas), Pastor Daniel Stephens (Mountain View, Arkansas), Pastor Gary Howard (Tulsa, Oklahoma) and Pastor and Sister Greg Riggen (Olathe, Kansas).
When we went to Zimbabwe and established this work in June of 2013, we determined that we would hold an annual conference on the anniversary of that first meeting. This was our second year to do so, and the meeting was an overwhelming success!
The conference was well attended. A number of local pastors joined us, but there were also many who had traveled a great distance to come. In fact, there were pastors present from other countries, including Malawi and Uganda.
We were extremely blessed to have Pastor Gary Howard with us, and he ministered to the people in a mighty way. Service after service, the power of God rested upon this man, and all of those present were strengthened by the preached Word of God.
Pastors Ogle and Stephens were also greatly used of God during this conference. There was no doubt that God anointed them to deliver timely and powerful messages.

The purpose of our annual conference is to further train and establish those pastors we have already converted to this Apostolic Truth. However, without exception, these men are so excited about this glorious revelation that they never fail to bring new men to each meeting.
Because there were new pastors present, Pastor Riggen felt it necessary to spend time dealing with doctrine. Before the meeting was over, we had baptized 17 others in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ!
There is no doubt God is doing a marvelous work in the nation of Zimbabwe. The truth continues to spread and, as it does, revival spreads with it! What a tremendous opportunity we have before us. Truly, a great and effectual door is opened unto us!
Your generous contribution to this effort is greatly needed at this time. You

ANNUAL CONFERENCE (CONTINUED)
TWO MORE COUNTRIES THIS YEAR!
This fall, we will return to Africa at least two more times, taking the truth into two additional countries. In September, we are scheduled to be in the country of Malawi. Then, in November, we will travel to Uganda. Both trips are for the purpose of preaching the Apostolic Message to Trinitarian Pentecostal pastors. Both of these countries present tremendous opportunities for us, and we are excited about what God is doing.
Each of these seminars will cost us a minimum of $10,000. Although this seems like a lot, it is actually very little when considering the worth of a soul, and the exponential effect each of these souls have. Every time we convert a pastor, he, in turn, converts his congregation. Your financial support is desperately needed so that we can continue to reach the continent of Africa with the message of the Oneness of God and baptism in Jesus’ Name!
