CFSBC 2024 Retreat  

English Track Meetings Overview: “Prioritizing the Lord in your Life “ 

I am delighted that you are able to attend our CFCBC 2024 retreat English Ministry Track.  Our theme this year is “Prioritizing the Lord in your Life” and it is my hope and prayer that this retreat will help you grow in your desire to serve the Lord as top priority in your life.  I also hope you have a wonderful time relaxing, enjoying good food and fellowship with your fellow believers. 

I believe that you will find this theme very timely because of the large number of distractions directed towards us in the age in which we live.  We will look at how we can overcome these distractions, so that can better focus upon the most important thing in life which is the pursuit of God and serving Him in the building up His kingdom.  This fits in well with our 2024 EM theme which is the Great Commission of Matthew 28:19-20. 

Here is the outline of the English Track meeting sessions: 

  • Session 1 – Pastor Dean (Friday night) 

  • Session 2 – Pastor Dean (Saturday morning) 

  • Session 3 – Pastor Stephen Wilson of Myhre Memorial Southern Baptist Church, Paramount (Saturday morning)

  • Session 4 – Ask Anything/ Questions & Answers (Saturday evening) 

  • Lord’s Day – Worship Service (Sunday morning) 

I look forward to seeing you then! 

Grace and peace, 

Pastor Dean
