MEXICO – On Saturday, May 18 the Mexican Advent Christian conference held an event where they invited a guest speaker to address the stresses of ministry upon marriages of pastors and their spouses. Not only were 10 of our Advent Christian pastors and their spouses in attendance, but also a few people in training to become pastors, as well as a pastoral couples seeking to become new delegates in the conference. 

After a full day of teaching, reflection, skits and prayer the pastors were invited to find a private corner where they could stand face to face with their spouses and ask forgiveness for the times when they had put ministry before their marriages and/or families. The moments that followed were powerful in that they were filled with tears, confession, forgiveness and reconciliation. Pastor Miguel (conference president) and the Mexican Advent Christian conference would like to thank the Advent Christian Conference of Southern California for investing in the lives of your leaders and their families by sponsoring this impactful event.
