BUFFALO IRON SHARPENS IRON CONFERENCE
|
The spread of COVID-19 has brought many concerns around the world, as well in our state as the Governor of NY has banned all gatherings of 500 or more. Unfortunately this has led us to postpone the Buffalo Iron Sharpens Iron conference for Saturday, March 21st. This decision did not come easily, or without lots of prayer, discussion and discernment. We believe we have a responsibility to do what we can to curb the spread of this virus and join many other institutions in following the recommendations of leaders who are asking people not to gather in large groups.
With well over 600 men scheduled to gather in one place next Saturday, including speakers from all over the country – we believe this is a prudent decision. While many of us might never be affected or could have a strong enough immune system to manage this particular virus, we have a responsibility to even the small percentage of those who could contract it and be at a higher risk of serious illness or death.
We are in touch with the host church – Watermark Wesleyan – who has cancelled all services for the foreseeable future – about rescheduling in the fall. We are excited to announce we have secured November 7th, 2020 – and hope you can join us for our rescheduled conference! Watermark Wesleyan Church has been a blessing to this ministry and the host church since the beginning in 2009.
