Matt 28:18-20

18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
NIV

John 20:10-16

10 Then the disciples went back to their homes, 11 but Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb 12 and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus' body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.

13 They asked her, "Woman, why are you crying?"

"They have taken my Lord away," she said, "and I don't know where they have put him." 14 At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.

15 "Woman," he said, "why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?"

Thinking he was the gardener, she said, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him."

16 Jesus said to her, "Mary."

She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, "Rabboni!" (which means Teacher).

The churches in Albania held their first annual national Albanian Men's Day October, 2002.

Hello to everyone!

The attached pictures are from the VERY SUCCESSFUL, first annual National Albanian Men's Day, held in Tragjas, about 30 minutes south of Vlore. Over 70 attended and ALL were encouraged. It was great to hear that many male voices singing and praising God together. There were several non-Christians there, including our van driver from Fier who was in services this a.m.

P.S. In case you can't figure it out, the group picture with Pete on the left is of the foreign missionaries who attended the meeting. Agron Sinani, from the Vlore congregation was the MC. Many Albanian men participated in leading singing, prayers and leaders of discussion groups.
