| Today was a different kind of meeting. The past week the regional coordinators and leadership team met as the Global Council, a consultative body. Today, the same group, joined by three board members, met as the Mission Assembly, the highest policy-making body in MKLM. |
|
| The Mission Assembly started with a liturgy with Bill Vos, chairman of the board of directors, presiding. Jason Obergfell read the first reading. |
 |
| Board member Mike Wrob brought his iPad to the meeting and it was the object of much curiosity and wishfulness. |
 |
| Several times during the day we were asked to reflect by ourselves on different points. Here Joanne Blaney of Brazil thinks over a proposal. |
 |
| In the afternoon and evening we had two presentations about our financial situation and the US economy, offered by our financial consultants, Fran Coopersmith and Andrew Wethern |
