Today was the last day of the Global Council and we dealt with several agenda items and then celebrated the end with an evening together.

In the morning the candidates and the Global Council participatns and many of the Bethany staff gathered in the chapel for prayer together.

• Morning Prayer
• Archives Presentation
• Organizational Identity and the Future
• Simple Living Expectations
• Review of the day and the Global Council

First Ellen Pierce spoke to us about the archives and the procedures for submitting materials, and then the group devoted the rest of the morning to a discussion of the organizational identity of MKLM.

Debbie Northern, the convenor of the MKLMers who live and work in the United States, made a point during the morning discussions.

Eileen Velicky, the representative of the Bolivia region, followed the flow of the discussion.

In the evening, in a tradition started by Margo and Erik Cambier in years past, we went to Debbie Northern's house for a simple meal of Chinese take-out and a lot of talking.
