Reverend Daniel Lincoln will share his
journey from a youth in war-torn Liberia to becoming a pastor in the United
Methodist Church in America as the Live More Ministries program speaker on
October 22, 2016 at Lorraine United Methodist Church, 20560 County Route 189.
Reverend Lincoln was born in Barboke, a
small jungle village in Liberia on the west coast of Africa. His father had
worshipped and sacrificed to idols prior to his conversion to Christianity
shortly before Daniel was born.
Reverend Lincoln’s message titled “Brave
Women and Christianity in the Twenty-First Century” will include a special
message about the important role women can have in helping a hurting world.
“Scripture tells us about the bravery of
women and I believe their bravery can bring about great changes in our society
that is so different than even 30 years ago,” Reverend Lincoln said.
Reverend Lincoln will complete his
second year as pastor of the United Methodist Church congregations in the
upstate New York villages of Lorraine and Mannsville in December. He is the
first male speaker to offer a message at one of the Live More Ministries
quarterly programs for women.
The Lorraine Methodist Church Women will
offer a complimentary breakfast from 9 am to 9:45 am prior to the program from
10 am to 12 pm on Saturday, October 22. The program is free to attend; all are
welcome. Book and gift table sales support the regional outreach ministry.
