Many Wonderful Events Helping to Promote OGT
OGT Phoenix Branch has been spreading our mission at several different events the past two months. The first activity was the Best Practices Ministry held on February 13-15 at Christ Church Lutheran Phoenix. Pastor Ralph Schmidt, Tom Watson and Pete Gnan represented the OGT International office and shared the history and current events of OGT. The local Phoenix Branch brought the popular weaving loom and display and talked to many attendees at the conference.
