Seventy guests representing IPFBM partnerships from nine countries attended, learning from the church-planting theme “Global Construction Zone.” A banner across the front of the auditorium highlighted the four goals of the conference: (1) to strengthen relationships among IPFBM partners, (2) to provide instruction in church planting strategies, (3) to find ways to supply pastors and associations with resources, and (4) to encourage the IPFBM partners to work together.
