2010 ABCOPAD Biennial: October 14-16, Blair County Convention Center
At our 2008 Biennial Gathering, we wanted to make an impact on the greater Altoona community for the cause of Christ. The vision God gave us was to partner with Habitat for Humanity and construct a home ... what a blessing it was to work together AND to see God use those experiences to challenge a community!
This year, we want to expand that effort by touching the Altoona community for Christ in a variety of ways. We have asked pastor and author David Ping to help us do just that. Co-author of the book entitled, Outflow, Pastor Ping will bring a challenging message of discipleship and servant evangelism to our Biennial gathering. We’ll be learning and we'll be living out that learning with one another and with the Altoona community.
