GTCA Morgantown, WV (1/26-2/10, 2019)

There will be a small blending time in Morgantown, WV in the middle of a two-week gospel trip from the FTTA.  The blending time will be primarily for new contacts from Morgantown and WVU, and we hope the Lord will draw many.  We will use the Recovery Version of the Bible in a seminar format (e.g. how to use the BfA topical directory, see https://biblesforamerica.org/pdf/study/illustrated_guide_en.pdf and review “page” 9-13).

If you can contribute positively to the time by being conscious of new ones, shepherding those around you, and openly participating in the seminar format (i.e. walking saints through the study process), you are warmly invited to attend.  Please reply tochurchinwilmington@gmail.com by January 27, 2019.  There will not be children’s meetings, but there will be a house available for children and young people to be during the meetings.

The local saints there are working to put together a block of rooms at a hotel near the seminar location (Wiles Hill Senior Center, 287 Eureka Drive, Morgantown, WV).  If you would like to participate in the hotel block, please reply tochurchinwilmington@gmail.com.

Where: Wiles Hill Senior Center

287 Eureka Drive

Morgantown, WV

When: Saturday February 2^nd, starting at 2PM through Sunday February 3^rd, concluding after lunch.

SPECIAL NOTE: The church in Virigina Beach asks that ALL RESERVATIONS related to the conference be made through the link above and/or using the group code, as possible.  By placing all our “buying power” into the hotel block, we improve standing and negotiating ability with the hotel in the future to have lower room rates and facility fees relating to the conference.
