Today the INMED office is bustling just seven days before the 9th annual Exploring Medical Missions Conference. Micah Flint is online diligently designing the evaluation form for feedback from Conference participants. Cindy Obenhaus and Liz Burgos are printing the name tags of conference participants, including each person’s personalized event schedule. All day long our focus is punctuated by phone calls from inquisitive people working through the registration process. Meanwhile, friends of INMED drop in to assist: Nancy Crigger, Chris Burgos. How very grateful I am for these friends, for the common mission we share, and for the marvelous way they make me a better man. As Proverbs 11:11 declares “The good influence of godly citizens causes a city to prosper, but the moral decay of the wicked drives it downhill.”
