Sunday morning concluded the teaching sessions and Pastor Matty went into a open discussion time with pastors. Several shared their addictions in the past and how they had come through it with the help of others and God. One said you never know because that one person struggling that you help maybe the next pastor called by God to serve HIS people. One pastor said "We need to take showers of Humility". Pastor Matty said that "There are two things the church needs to do to meet the needs of a person with addiction". First disciple the church to understand addiction. Second they will be able to disciple the person with the addiction more affectively.
At the close of the conference the pastors talked about the next conference and topics. They were excited about October of this year for the next one. They all indicated that there WILL be more pastors here. They very much liked what was taught over the last few days and looked forward to next time. Pastor Matty had made certificates for the Pastors to remember this time. We all eat lunch and they departed to their homes.
