General Synod 2018 is off to a great start.
World Witness hosted their annual Golf Tournament at Etowah Valley Country Club. The winners were Lee Winters, Trust Winters, Jeffrey Brown, and Harold Blackmond from Newberry ARP Church in Newberry, SC.
Outreach North America hosted Pre-Synod with Dr. Lon Allison from the Billy Graham Center on Evangelism. Dr. Allison encouraged everyone to remember, “Prayer, care, share,” according to Colossians 4:2-6 which reads, 
“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.”
General Synod begins Tuesday with Opening Worship at 2pm.
