World missions and good eats

October 6, 2009

FPC Kosciusko’s 54th World Mission Conference, “Bless the Nations,” begins Friday, October 9 and runs through Sunday, October 11. Dr. Richard Pratt is the main speaker. Rev. Bill Bradford of Peru Mission and Rev. Chad Smith, RUF campus minister at Belhaven College are special guests. Join us if you can.

We always display the flags of nations where we send and support church planters. I found four of the twenty-two flags on a site which displays the work of the advertising agency WHYBIN/TBWA. They were hired for the Sydney International Food Festival to promote the festival by creating food flags for the various countries represented. Each food flag contains a food that is generally identified with that country, and the color of the food corresponds with the color of the flag. (Click here to see the entire collection).
