Ministers from page BS and four other nations (Belize, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and South Africa) form this year's class. Dr. Bailey, a Winston-Salem native, said, "Financial and other contributions help us immensely. However, to work with congregations and clergy in my hometown to train world-class leaders is a dream fulfilled." The Conference promotes both senders and goers through interdenominational cooperation in addressing common values. For more than seven years, Bishop Fulton has led Mt. Moriah, where he is pastor, in medical missions' trips in St. Kitts. The collaboration is a "natural." The interac tion increases local awareness of local and international challenges. According to Bishop Fulton, "This important Kingdom work helps to undergird our brothers and sisters from abroad. We are bringing the Kingdom of heaven to earth international ly. Dr. Bailey and her staff are doing a wonderful job in teaching the world what a broad-base partnership looks like. We are honored, as the Ministers' Conference, to be a part of this collaboration and partner ship." Under a covenant agreement, collabo ration partners leverage resources to meet mutual ministry goals both here and abroad: food and social justice, health, education and economic empowerment. Interns and congregant members range from 18 years to over 80 years of age. Partners clear, plow and plant a communi ty garden at the Winston Lake YMCA. Featured in the WXI1 television documen tary, "Childhood Hunger: The Silent Crisis," the project seeks to decrease local food insecurity locally. Such hands-on training builds universal skills for person al, community and national transforma tion. Conference contributions of bottled water, other goods and financial contribu tions help defray the Center's training costs. More importantly, the Conference promotes broad community awareness of a Christian worldview and practical imple mentation of the Great Commission. Collaborators look forward to future com munity forums on local and international issues of social and food justice. Together, collaborators seek to strengthen Church missions.

Nations from the area (Egypt to Assyria) will become their friends while others will be inhabited. Lesson: Leaning on the promises of God to guide, protect, and care for His people, the prophet prays He will continue to shep herd His flock. Micah longs to see the sheep in green pastures like days of old. Bashan and Gilead are located east of the Promised Land with plush fields for cattle. The tribes of Reuben, Gad, and part of Manasseh were allowed to stay there with their live stock. God responds in verse 15, saying that His A wonders will be seen like in the days when they were led out of Egypt. When the surrounding nations see the power of God, they will be dumbfounded. The prophet declares that those people will "lick dust like snakes" in defeat. Micah con cludes with the question, "Who is a God like you"? This God forgives sin and restores a remnant of His people after judgment. He doesn't remain angry with His people forever. He delights in showing mercy. Life's Application: In last week's lesson, we came face to face with God's requirements. In today's lesson and in many others Scriptures, we see God modeling what He wants from His creation. Sin is real and we all are guilty from time to time. When our sins are com pounded and we exploit those on the outskirts of society, God warns us to repent and come back to Him. We ignore the warn ings and He sends judg ment. This is His last resort because He really wants to bless and restore His cre ation. God wants us to be just in all that we do and to show mercy as a sign of His compassion. Like Micah, we need to have hope in God, not the wealth and power of this world. God's mercy is our greatest gift in Christ Jesus. He demonstrated His mercy over and over again. Who wouldn't serve a God like that? He was, is and contin ues to be faithful to a rebel lious people!
