Day 3 - Giving to missions is the heart of NLM so that missionaries can be sent throughout the world.

Today we were challenged on how we give. "it is easy to give of our excess or our leftovers but God wants us to give to the point that it has consequences in our life, then we will truly have to trsut in God for our needs."

There are over 5000 people in attendence which includes 800 children. There are many activities for the children and they will only join us on the last day for the sunday worship service called "the family service."

The General Assembly is a massive event and there are 450 volunteers who make it happen and none of them are paid. It is considered a blessing to be able to serve NLM by volunteering and thus money is also saved to go to the missionaries.

God bless!
