the Ethnic America Network Presents
the 2008 Ethnic Ministries Summit,

high. Conversation is buzzing among participants as to how what they
are learning and experiencing here can be extended into their own
areas and ministries. Tonight John Perkins is our speaker--it should
be a great ending to the event. That evening meeting at 7:00 PM
is open to the public.
The 2008 Summit, the 8th annual Ethnic Ministries Summit,
is being hosted
by Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church in St. Louis,
