Bible Workers Study With South Sound Residents

By Tyler Long, February 19, 2017

This last winter a team of outreach coordinators — evangelism-trained individuals from SOULS Northwest, SOULS West, Amazing Facts Center of Evangelism (AFCOE), Costa Rica and even Egypt — stepped in to help fill a need in western Washington.

Washington Conference received 1,800 Bible study requests from residents in the South Sound region. Even with more than 200 volunteers assisting in the response, more help was needed. The outreach coordinators are helping 10 of the 19 partner churches who most need Bible study response assistance.

The outreach coordinators are giving Bible studies, helping people grow in their spiritual journey and growing the team of volunteers in their outreach efforts.

Revelation Speaks Peace with Shawn Boonstra will begin March 10 and run most nights, except Mondays and Thursdays, through April 8. The entire series will be presented at the Washington State Fair Events Center's AgriPlex in Puyallup and will include programs for adults and children. Find more details at revelationspeakspeace.com and washingtonconference.org/peace.
