Roger W. Lowther, Tokyo, Japan

I also had the honor of attending Mission to the World's Global Missions Conference in Atlanta November 1-3 with 1,800 people in attendance from around the world. The arts were represented well through plenaries, seminars, and the exhibit hall. I personally loved the display of Jen Burkemper (visual artist) and her team in Spain with olive oil and a free giveaways of wine!

The MAKE Collective gathered for a sharing time during lunch, led by visual artist Marcus Rudd in Mexico. In the picture below, Anna Gardner shares about her dance internship in Japan. A number of young people took steps toward engaging in arts and missions internships around the world. It was such a wonderful time to gather with other artists serving around the world!
