Dillon the first night, Bro. Andy Nieman (what a story) and Bro. Andrew Dickinson the first morning, Bro. Brian Abernathy the second night (even though he's from Indiana the Bro. can preach) and of course the finale by Bro. Granville MacKenzie dovetailed together.

There were great reports of what is happening in Newfoundland - Bro. Hughey (not sure of the spelling) an evangelist from Missouri has been there for the past 6 weeks under the auspices of GHMD and has been stirring things up with door knocking etc. In one church which had an average attendance of 6 - after being there a week they had 38 on Saturday night and 27 on Sunday night. In church after church similar things happening - in Newfoundland!

Oh yeah -- we also raised 40k for evangelism in Canada - to bring prospector/harvester type evangelists into small churches and some of our smaller districts. Looks like we will have two campaigns - one in Canadian Plains and another somewhere else to be decided - where an evangelist will come in for 2 months to help these smaller churches.

Central Canadian District did a great job hosting.

Now THAT is something to be excited about... the Newfoundland report!!! Wonderful wonderful.
Do you know which church it was that went from 6-27?

Where is Andrew Dickinson now?
Did you happen to see J McGillan? Old friend of ours.
