Ajith Fernando Speaking at LAC May 16th and 17th

Yes! I saw Ajith speak at Urbana 2006. He’s funny, real, and has a profound story to tell about how God has used tremendous tragedy, war, and unrest, not to mention natural disasters, to bring Sri Lankans to the foot of the cross person by person, family by family. He has a whirlwind personal testimony of humility, love, a passion for Jesus and for the study of His Word, and most of all an undying Kingdom vision for a people and a culture he calls home.

I totally recommend you guys attend either the Saturday night or one of the two Sunday morning services May 16th/17th (next week!) to hear this strong and lovely man of God share some of his story, and His Story. I don’t know what his topic will be but he’s quite the scholar and expositor. At Urbana he led us through an exposition of Ephesians on each of the five days of the conference. It was the highlight of each morning this time of study and reflection.

So check him out next weekend @ Lake.

This is a perfect time to also let you know about GLO’s upcoming Summer Series:

Sri Lanka: Words, Film, Music, Food and Service
July 9th through August 20th

Hang out with us as we engage with Sri Lankan life and culture right here in Greater Los Angeles. Join us for a film screening, live music, food, and a volunteer project in our local community. Plus – we’ll have another guest speaker share and pray with us in a smaller, more casual setting.

The best part about this whole thing is we planned the GLO Summer Series without even knowing about Ajith’s visit to Lake.

Jesus is so Cool Like That. :)

Watch the blog in June for details!
