THANK YOU!
The 2026 BIO God Loves People Conference was a tremendous blessing! Lighthouse Baptist Church in Ludington, Michigan, did an exceptional job hosting the meeting. Pastor Brian Blount and the entire church family welcomed us warmly and served with a joyful spirit. The facilities were perfect for the conference, the food and refreshments were delicious, and the Christ-honoring music added greatly to every service.
Our theme, “Striving Together in Missions,” was drawn from Philippians 1:27: “…with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel.” That spirit was evident throughout the conference as missionaries, pastors, church members, and friends gathered for fellowship, encouragement, and a renewed focus on the Great Commission.
Brother Chris Luppino moderated an informative Table Talk, and Joyce Samples led a special session for the ladies. We were challenged through the preaching of Pastor Theron Crawford, David Peach, and Brother Terry Childers. Pastor Mark Campbell shared an encouraging testimony about the ministry of a sending church, while Meskel Crowe and Mike Remington testified of what God is doing among the Deaf around the world.
A special offering was received toward the retirement of the BIO mortgage. More than $6,000 was raised to help eliminate the debt! We praise the Lord for this generous investment in the future of Baptist International Outreach and for another significant step toward our goal of becoming debt-free.
Thank you to everyone who attended, participated, gave, and prayed for the conference. We returned home encouraged by what God is doing and reminded once again that no one fulfills the Great Commission alone. We must continue striving together for the faith of the Gospel.
