“Dyan Hefner gave the devotion. You have a cup of coffee and someone bumps into you and it spills. Why did it spill? Whatever is in the cup spills out. It is just like life, it can shake us up. Whenever life gets tough, what is inside of us spills out. It can be joy, peace, humility, anger, bitterness or a harsh reaction. We should show gratitude, joy, kindness,  affirmation,  and love to others. Life presents the cup and we decide what comes out. Marty Burns and Debbie Sammons sang, “Fill my cup, Lord” to the group.

“Barbara Seldomridge gave the missionary education report about John and Gwen Johnson. In January 2020, they were appointed Global Strategy regional coordinators for Africa. They travel throughout Africa to develop regional strategies and cultivate relationships within the Church of God across Africa. They also oversee missionaries and projects in the region. John and Gwen have been involved in missions with the Church of God since 1980. They have lived in Korea, Egypt, Lebanon, the Island of Guam, and Vietnam.
