Greetings from Abuja, where in January we began the new semester at Providence Baptist College and Seminary with 17 students (13 new). We are glad to have Missionary Pastor Israel Thompsons and Bro. Adewale Adesina teaching with us.
With this letter we want to formally invite you to our annual meeting for churches, the 5th Soul-Winning and Leadership Conference, with the newly confirmed dates of:
Our theme for 2013 is “Training Every Member.” It is my prayer that several members from your church will come with you to the conference where our hopes are for each person to be edified by the challenging messages, empowering teaching, and uplifting music. As before, there will be daytime sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for church members, senior pastors, and ministry staff on such subjects as soul-winning, leadership, music, the family, finances, and church growth. We want to give the opportunity for each preacher who has recently planted a church to give a testimony; I also wish to share with you some ideas, principles, and blessings from our ministry’s efforts to train and send out our people for ministry. The conference will begin promptly at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, 20 May 2013.
I believe that you have come to expect the helpful gifts and valuable materials that you receive at each Soul Winning and Leadership Conference, including the SWLC manuals, Sword of the Lord books, and BEAMS Bibles, along with various other books and ministry helps. Once again, I am pleased to announce the following: Each church represented at the 2013 conference will receive a free pack of 5 DVD’s. The Bible Believers’ Radio ministry has been very generous to send us a shipment of “Pastor’s Packs” containing several preaching DVD’s. We hope they will be a blessing to your church.
We will once again be able to provide housing in our seminary hostel for 50 single people free of charge during the conference. For those who need them, there will be 11 hotel rooms reserved at a cost to you of 2500 Naira nightly. Meals will also be provided for all visitors during the week.
Please contact me by SMS or e-mail so that we can make proper arrangements for your meals and housing. In your correspondence, include how many will be coming, when you will be arriving, and what type of accommodations you prefer. We need to have a confirmation from you by Friday, 17 May, to guarantee space for you or your members in the hostel or hotel. We will also gladly welcome those who wish to come early before the conference on Sunday to attend Truth Baptist Church and hear Dr. Cox and Dr. Wattenbarger. I look forward to hearing from you.

Greetings from Truth Baptist in Nyanya, where we are praising God for His blessings on our 4th Anniversary services last Sunday, as we saw a total of 518 in attendance, and 98 people received Christ as their Saviour! Our 2nd semester of Providence Baptist College and Seminary is underway, and there are now 20 people involved in the ministry training.

Each church represented at the 2010 conference will receive a free box of 25 BEAMS Bibles!

The visiting pastors will have top priority, yet we should have space for several single men on a first come, first serve basis. For those who need them, there will be 11 hotel rooms reserved at a cost to you of 2000 Naira nightly. Meals will also be provided for all visitors during the week.
