Meetings Report 20 24 1 2 : B V O V ministry leader and co-founder of Superkid Academy, had gone to heaven in January 2024. Student ministry 14forty's theme, Established, came from Colossians 2:6-7: "Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving " (English Standard Version). The ministry team, as well as guests Pastor George Pearsons, Dean Sikes, Kellie Copeland, Morgan Dufresne, Nancy Dufresne, Iva Bennett and Terri Savelle Foy, taught students what it means to be established in the Word, in faith, in love, in righteousness, in holiness and in "all things that pertain unto life and godliness" (2 Peter 1:3). The Holy Spirit showed up in profound ways, with more than 300 students receiving ministry throughout the week. And of those, 35 students received salvation and 33 were delivered from suicidal temptation. 14forty's ministry at SWBC was a continuation of what began at its Much More Spring Retreat, which took place March 10-13. More than 300 students from 62 different churches and 10 states attended the old-style-revival tent meeting. During the morning and evening services, teens learned how to have an uncommon faith so they can live victoriously. Once again, God showed up in a BIG way. In addition to seven salvations, 20 students received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit and 18 had confirmed physical healings. Many students testified of their freedom from addiction, depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts. Others felt called into the ministry. As Brother Copeland had declared over the young people, "One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts" (Psalm 145:4). Just imagine how God is going to use these young warriors for Jesus in the future! More Miracles God moved once again during EMIC's annual Miracles on the Mountain meeting. This popular event welcomed more than 750 More Growth Over the years, the Lord has led KCM and EMIC to reach different ages and unite those of common interests. SWBC's The Bridge, for 18-30-year-olds, helps the next generation find other young adults of like-minded faith. These believers are committed to continuing the heritage of faith they've learned from those who've gone before them. They're thankful to make new friends with others who are committed to the Lord too. As one attendee said, "It's so hard to find people of faith in this age category, so when we saw [The Bridge], we jumped at it." But the celebration and growth didn't only happen for adults. Superkid Academy, ages 6-12, and 14forty's youth services saw their own growth. Under the leadership of Kellie Copeland, a ministry team delivered truth and hope to our Superkids. By the end of SWBC, 26 children accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior, 27 were healed, and a whopping 76 experienced freedom from fear. Praise God! One of those delivered was 9-year-old Isaiah, whose mother had died seven months earlier. He heard the Lord tell him that not only was he free from pressure and anxiety, but he'd also never be lonely again. And Caiden, age 12, finally received peace from Father God after not having his biological dad in his life. He also received healing from grief after learning that Commander Linda Johnson, longtime children's 14forty youth services at Southwest Believers' Convention and Superkid Academy (inset)
