Uruguay UBF had two disciples¡¯ conferences last week. On March 15-16, we had the first Easter conference at a Christian retreat center near Montevideo. The first lecture, ¡°New Covenant¡± from Luke 22, was delivered by M. Jose Park on Saturday. Afterward, we celebrated communion. We could meditate on the meaning of Jesus¡¯ cross and drinking Jesus¡¯ blood and eating his body. The second lecture, ¡°Do you love me more than these?¡± from John 21, was delivered by Sh. Graciela Park on Sunday. We also sang Hallelujah chorus.
Including Sisters Shirley, Beatriz and Brother Adrian, a total of 10 people attended the conference. Then on March 19-21, we visited Sister Beatriz who lives in a city by the sea and studied the Bible. Sister Beatriz received Christ who died for her sins on the cross and rose from the dead and she was baptized in the river. It was a historical event. She also received a new name, Maria, as a woman of resurrection faith. On March 21st, we had a testimony sharing meeting at the center on ¡°Feed My Sheep¡± and Sister Nieves and Brother Adrian attended.
