Stream of Praise Intl' Leadership Conference 2005 Comes to the US

By Eunice Or

The Stream of Praise, a Taiwan-based ministry serving Chinese Christian worldwide with gospel music, worship resources and training, is going to host the International Leadership & Worship Conference on Dec. 30, 2005- Jan. 1, 2006 at Costa Mesa, California.

The theme of the Conference is GLOW, which not only means "bright and shining" in English, but also can it be interpreted as "God Leads Our Way".

As music ministries play an important role in evangelism among the young generation, the Stream of Praise believes that through praise and prayer in the Conference, God will prepare a new generation of leaders who hunger and thirst for a mighty move of God.

During the three-day Conference, participants will be devoted to worship and bible studies every morning. Rev. Charlie Robinson, a minister with Fresh Fire Ministries and a close coworker of Todd Bentley, is invited as the lecturer. Dr. Jedidiah Tham, the founder of Living Lilies who upholds the pure and pragmatic presentation of biblical truths, will be speaking on the Sunday service.

The Stream of Praise also aims to equip leaders along three major tracks through the Conference: character of a spiritual leader, worship in spirit and truth, worship leader and team training. Therefore, six different study classes are scheduled in the afternoons.

Each class offers a series of lectures, covering spiritual foundation topics as well as technical knowledge on Cinematography, Church Sound, Recording techniques and many others.

Rev Sandy Yu, President of Stream of Praise Music Ministries/Producer; Pastor Dennis Chou, Pastoral care of Stream of Praise Music Ministries and Bezeleel Lau, Professional Producer/Sound Engineer of Dream Works International Dubbing Supervisor will be hosting these classes to share their professional experience with the young leaders.

All meetings are conducted in both Mandarin and English. For registration, please visit the Stream of Praise website.
