NAMB, at SBC, spotlights spiritual need of North America

Last year at the 2011 Southern Baptist Convention annual meeting in Phoenix, Matt Mowrey took the stage as a testimony to God’s work in Norwich, Conn., through North American Mission Board (NAMB) missionary Shaun Pillay. This year Southern Baptists saw video of Matt’s dad who, shortly after watching last year’s presentation, became one of Norwich’s newest believers. Recently, Matt’s grandmother also accepted Christ. During the NAMB report and presentation at the 2012 SBC annual meeting in New Orleans, NAMB President Kevin Ezell highlighted the importance of ongoing and sustainable efforts, like those in Norwich, in penetrating lostness in North America.
