Friday - Saturday, October 18-19, 2002—"Healing For Your Heart" conference at HeartLove Place In Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Dallas, Linda, and the Discipleship Unlimited team have been asked to partner with HeartLove Place to provide a "Healing For Your Heart" weekend outreach to the community of HeartLove Place in Milwaukee's central city.  Through this conference, DU will reach out to the neighborhood of HeartLove Place and surrounding communities.  The main speaker will be Marshall Brandon.  Marshall will be sharing the message of reconciliation, which he says is a more a spiritual issue than a racial one.  Marshall is a pastor at Hudson Community Chapel, where he is the pastor of evangelism and discipleship.   (See our "HeartLove Place" section on this web site for more information on HeartLove Place and to register for the conference.)

The weekend will begin with a fish fry on Friday night.  On Saturday, a light lunch will be served. The afternoon will consist of breakout sessions, praise and worship, celebration time, teaching, prayer, and fellowship.   There will be a banquet dinner on Saturday evening, and Marshall and his wife will be sharing a message.

HeartLove Place's mission is to assist Milwaukee's central-city families by teaching, encouraging, and mentoring individuals to accept personal responsibility, achieve quality work ethics, and develop quality character through the influence and knowledge of Jesus Christ.  The vision of HeartLove Place is to assist children and help families shape and improve the quality of their lives.  Successful families are essential components of a quality community; families will succeed when parents raise their children by giving them love and guidance based on God-given principles.  Through partnering with Discipleship Unlimited, HeartLove Place hopes to reach the community through an encounter with Jesus Christ.

Linda is working with the team to arrange speakers, music/praise and worship, liturgical dance, food, registration, expenses, and volunteers for the conference weekend.  The HeartLove Place building is a beautiful new facility with a wonderful kitchen, banquet hall, stage, and meeting rooms.

The aftercare and programs for those who attend the conference and need assistance is a critical area for an event of this size.  People and opportunities must be put in place to cover the needs that come out of this conference.

bulletDonna Dixon . . . will be traveling the week of January 15, 2001, to Gatesville, Texas, to plan for the ministry team for the February Ministry Opportunity. She will be meeting with Carole Ross, the volunteer chaplain, and they will coordinate the activities for the team. There will be volunteers coming from all across the United States to be a part of the team. Please pray for the situation in Texas concerning the escaped inmates. This could have and influence on where we can go, who we can minister to, and how things are handled. In the past, there has been freedom, trust, respect, and cooperation.

Friday - Saturday, October 18-19, 2002—"Healing For Your Heart" conference at HeartLove Place In Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Dallas, Linda, and the Discipleship Unlimited team have been asked to partner with HeartLove Place to provide a "Healing For Your Heart" weekend outreach to the community of HeartLove Place in Milwaukee's central city.  Through this conference, DU will reach out to the neighborhood of HeartLove Place and surrounding communities.  The main speaker will be Marshall Brandon.  Marshall will be sharing the message of reconciliation, which he says is a more a spiritual issue than a racial one.  Marshall is a pastor at Hudson Community Chapel, where he is the pastor of evangelism and discipleship.   (See our "HeartLove Place" section on this web site for more information on HeartLove Place and to register for the conference.)

The weekend will begin with a fish fry on Friday night.  On Saturday, a light lunch will be served. The afternoon will consist of breakout sessions, praise and worship, celebration time, teaching, prayer, and fellowship.   There will be a banquet dinner on Saturday evening, and Marshall and his wife will be sharing a message.

HeartLove Place's mission is to assist Milwaukee's central-city families by teaching, encouraging, and mentoring individuals to accept personal responsibility, achieve quality work ethics, and develop quality character through the influence and knowledge of Jesus Christ.  The vision of HeartLove Place is to assist children and help families shape and improve the quality of their lives.  Successful families are essential components of a quality community; families will succeed when parents raise their children by giving them love and guidance based on God-given principles.  Through partnering with Discipleship Unlimited, HeartLove Place hopes to reach the community through an encounter with Jesus Christ.

Linda is working with the team to arrange speakers, music/praise and worship, liturgical dance, food, registration, expenses, and volunteers for the conference weekend.  The HeartLove Place building is a beautiful new facility with a wonderful kitchen, banquet hall, stage, and meeting rooms.

The aftercare and programs for those who attend the conference and need assistance is a critical area for an event of this size.  People and opportunities must be put in place to cover the needs that come out of this conference.
