2007 PEN eSchool - Countdown to the next Three Weeks

Dear PEN Colleagues,

The time is quickly approaching for our PEN 2007 eSchool. We will gather together at the Billy Graham Training Center at the Cove in Asheville NC November 27-30. We are excited about participating in the well known and respected Billy Graham School of Evangelism Tuesday November 27 thru Thursday November 29 and then spending an extra day together until 11:30 am Friday November 30. The extra day will be specifically designed to meet the unique needs of the itinerant evangelist. As we have highlighted in the past several PEN "E-Memos," we will hear and interact with Ron Hutchcraft, York Moore as well as Rev. Gary Cobb. Gary began his ministry with the BGEA in the Nashville Crusade 1978. He returned to the BGEA in 1992 as Coordinator of Counseling and Follow-Up and since then had trained thousands to share their faith through the organization's Christian Life and Witness Course. He is currently serving as VP of Church Ministries with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He will bring us a unique look into what the Graham Organization does for follow-up and be open to questions.

There will be a host of great workshops as well as wonderful plenary speakers at the School of Evangelism. If you have ever been to one of these Schools you know how good they are. It will also give us a wonderful time to interact with three to four hundred evangelistic minded Pastors. How often does an evangelist get to do that! Make your plans quickly to be with us.

Sincerely in Christ,
Dallas Anderson, for the PEN Executive Committee
Director of Proclamation Ministries Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College

Mbarara Crusade

George Etling and his wife Cheri will be ministering in Mbarara, Uganda as they hold crusades and leadership seminars. as well as teach a 4 day seminar.
Mabarara is located 200 miles from Kampala and they expect thousands to come to the crusade to hear God's Word preached. Pray that God's will be done during the Crusade, and that peoples hearts will be changed as they accept Jesus as their Savior for the first time, or as they recommit their live to Christ. Africa is on fire right now for the Lord. The harvest is ready, they "want to hear the Word of God." When you receive an invitation to minister in Africa, take action because the field is ripe unto harvest.

Throughout the three-day Festival (November 2-4), which drew almost 26,000 people of all ages from Tacoma and surrounding areas, more than 1,400 people came forward in response to the invitation to follow Jesus Christ.

Pastors and church members throughout the region began preparing for the Festival more than a year ago, and BGEA opened an office in the city to work with believers citywide-training them to reach out to people who do not know God. Nearly 3,000 people were trained in BGEA's Christian Life and Witness class.

"This was a wonderful experience," says Rachel Davis of Tacoma. "I counseled a 15-year-old on Saturday. It was her first time to give her heart to the Lord. She was quite receptive and listened attentively. She had tears in her eyes." To view the complete article, please click on this link.

FUTURE PEN ARTICLES

We will be correlating the data for the next PEN Newsletter. In order for events and articles to be included in the upcoming PEN Newsletter, we have set Wednesday, January 16, 2008 at 12:00 noon central time as the deadline. We will try to run as many articles as possible, but we can not guarantee that your article will be included in the upcoming PEN
Newsletter as there are over 300 ministries participating in the PEN Network. In order for your ministry event to be included in the next PEN Newsletter, we will need to receive the following from you by the deadline.

1) Subject or Title Heading
2) Brief Description of Event, Article, or Training Opportunity
3) WebLink to an article or webpage describing full detail of ministry event, article, or training opportunity

Below you will find a list of qualifications for data that will be included in the PEN Newsletter.

1) The PEN Newsletter will not include any information regarding Fund Raising for your ministry. This is not the role of this newsletter.

2) We will attempt to include brief articles from as many ministries as possible. Articles must be Evangelistic in nature. Most Evangelistic Projects, Training Opportunities, and Conferences will be listed in our upcoming events section of each newsletter.

3) All other information will be included only upon a space availability basis. We will rank importance according to PEN guidelines.

4) All correspondence must be done through emails. Please try not to call our office or fax your articles to us, as it will be more time consuming to retype information in for each of the newsletters.

5) The PEN Network and On The Go Ministries / Keith Cook Evangelistic
Association are not responsible for mistakes or miscommunications.

6) All articles received must have Subject/Title line, Brief Description of Article, Information, Evangelistic Event, or Training Opportunity, and Weblink to your ministry event or webpage that contains actual information you want communicated. Full articles that will be included in the PEN Newsletter will only be that of official PEN related articles.

We look forward to working with you so that others may know how they can be more actively involved in your ministry. Again, please remember that we can not promise to enter an article on every ministry that submits information, but we will make an attempt to include as much information as we possibly can, yet keep the newsletter concise and informative as well. In order to list an Upcoming Evangelistic Article, Project, or
Training Opportunity, please send your articles with your Subject or Title line, Brief Description, and Weblink to the following address: Laurie@onthego.org.
