November Board Meeting Highly Successful

The AzOSA Board Meeting that took place in November was very productive. Sharon Gannon was appointed to be the new AzOSA Treasurer. Work to develop the web site as a tracking device for sales and inventory control will significantly lessen the time put in by the Treasurer and Book Master. Nancy Porsche is doing a great job as Media Coordinator. A reimbursement policy for expenditures has been adopted. Vern Hartz, Pima Division Assistant Book Master has volunteered to also serve as V.P. of Sales. Monthly Meeting reminders will be sent out to Members and interested persons. Honorary membership for Tom Canfield was granted by the Board for his service in preparing and editing the DVDs AzOSA is producing.

Eastern Europe Mission Trip Report

The Mission trip to Eastern Europe was successful way beyond expectations. The Lord opened many doors, and through the work of the local Christians and an American husband and wife team in Latvia, many people heard the Creation Evangelism messages and had their faith in Scripture strengthened. I was allowed to present messages in three universities, two medical schools, a prison for boys, several high schools, public and Christian, in a poly technical Institute and dozens of churches. Some 2,800 people heard the various presentations. It is interesting to note that the presentation most requested by Pastors was Six Days or Millions of Years. Compromise with the gap theory has been so widely taught in Russia and the countries that were part of the Russian Empire since 1882. Also in the churches many

people asked about dinosaurs, carbon-14, the age of the earth and the universe. These same topics were also most frequently asked about in the secular settings. In Latvia the radio interview, nearly an hour in length, had already been broadcast at least four times. Usually a program is only broadcast twice. I have been asked to return to Latvia and the Ukraine and Russia next year. Many thanks for your prayers and support. Joseph Kezele.

Vern Hartz New V. P. of Sales

Vern Hartz, Pima Division Assistant Book Master has volunteered to also serve as V.P. of Sales, tracking inventory and ordering new items. If you have requests for particular books or DVDs, contact Vern at vhartz@azcc.arizona.edu.
