Ever notice how everybody around you keeps getting older? Here's a recent shot of our aging A&D World Missions Canada directors talking about where we're going to find some younger men and women to add to our team of directors. Matt & Becky were guests at this annual board meeting but they can't be directors right now because they are busy on the other side of the world. Margaret is running the A&D office out of her house here as well as working full time and raising two boys. That's the trouble with all the good, young leaders - they are busy. It's not that the rest of us feel so old, we are just coming into the prime of our wisdom, but we do sense the urgency to mobilize the next generation. The question is, "Are we capturing the passion of a new generation, and how successfully are we transitioning them into this amazing Kingdom call?"

The underpinnings of a great ministry is it's great leaders, imparting wisdom and spiritual gifts into the next generation so that they may be established. God forbid that we abandon them with no inheritance, forcing them to start again from nothing.
