TULSA, OKLA. -
The Tulsa International Soul Winning Workshop will return in 2009, 2010
and every year after that until the Holy Spirit indicates it’s time to
stop, workshop director Terry Rush said.
Rush, minister for the Memorial Drive church, assured attendees that
the annual, three-day workshop has a bright future, despite the recent
decision of the Garnett church to step back from its role as the
workshop’s co-sponsor.
Since 1976, the two Tulsa congregations have directed the workshop,
which brought about 8,000 attendees to the city’s fairgrounds this
spring, Rush said.
But in recent years a decline in membership at the Garnett church has
left the congregation without the manpower and resources to oversee the
event. Garnett members will continue to attend and support the
workshop, minister Wade Hodges said. After much discussion and prayer,
Memorial Drive’s elders agreed to take full responsibility for the
workshop.
