In Latin America there is a big Kairos
Conference once every five years. For
many it was their first Kairos
conference.
This years theme was I Stand at the
Door and Knock, with general session
themes of:
When Jesus knocks
The people God wants
Conquering the land
(And fireworks Saturday
night!)
The
young people, aged 17-25, were called on
to decision, sacrifice, and boldness in
mission.
Every evening there was a
festival with sketches, music, videos,
and dancing in celebration of faith,
community, and the different
nationalities.
