DESCRIPTION

“Missions Lifeline” is an annual, one-day conference aimed to fuel the passion for missions in the heart of your local church. This year, we are pleased to be hosting renowned keynote speakers Nik and Ruth Ripken! The Ripkens have served as missionaries throughout Malawi, South Africa, and Kenya, and their time ministering through famine and war to refugees in the Horn of Africa specifically put them in contact with the persecuted Church. Join us as we hear about God’s global work and how your church can join in with what God is doing! We will also be screening the movie “The Insanity of God” (the life story of the Ripkens) as part of this event.

Additionally, we will be hosting a Q&A session, as well as a variety of booths (IMB, NAMB, SEND Relief, Disaster Relief, WMU Annual Meeting, Prayer for the Persecuted, and others!). A BBQ lunch will be provided to all attendees. Kids’ (up to 5th grade) missions-based programming will be available all day.

“Missions Lifeline” is sponsored in partnership by Indiana WMU and the State Convention of Baptists in Indiana.
