#51 Saturday, May 16, 2015 | 9:00 am to 2:45 pm The power of blessing: It is high time that we rediscovered our God-given commission to be the people who bless. We will explore the dynamics and purpose of the ministry of blessing and discover its connections with the ministry of healing and transformation. We will learn how to bless our prodigals as we call them to come home to Jesus. We will also see how the power of blessing can help heal and restore churches suffering from the wounds of trauma.
