September 28-29, 2012

Many years, four Work & Witness conferences are held across the U.S.A.  One of those is usually on the campus of Southern Nazarene University, 6729 NW 39th Expressway, Bethany, OK.

Why do thousands of Nazarenes each year give their time, money and skills in short-term mission trips where they do construction, health care, evangelism, education and even agriculture?

People are asking a zillion questions about the Nazarene short-term mission program called Work and Witness.

Let's get together and answer them.
Let's share our stories.
Let's plan for the future!

We'll have a special speaker. Long-time missionaries will be there. Veteran participants of 25 and more trips will be there. There will be displays from mission fields wanting teams, travel agencies, Compassionate Ministry centers in the U.S. and other mission trip support agencies and businesses.

Missionaries, Nazarene world region offices, travel agencies: Would you like to set up a display?

If you'd like to set up a display table at the conference, contact us via e-mail ( mexico@snu.edu ) or by phone at  405-491-6693 .
