Overseas Council
Welcome to Overseas Council: “The Power of One”
Dear "Power of One" friends,

As an Overseas Council (OC) staff member, I often share stories of what God is doing in the ministry with my wife, Susan, and she reads our newsletters and other media pieces. The stories that she had heard all became very real for Susan last March when we had the opportunity to cash in a few of my frequent flyer miles and travel together to Ethiopia.
