Dear NFTD Community, I am extremely honored and humbled to be chosen as chairman of the NFTD community. My husband, Doug and I attended NFTD #13 and have served many, many weekends. This community has such a special place in our hearts and we are excited that this community continues to show the love of Jesus. We have so many that give of their time and talent and I encourage those that are not involved as of yet to join in. My prayer for us all is to be Kingdom minded, knowing Jesus is King and being His voice to the lost world. Thank you for your encouragement and trust as I follow as the Lord leads. De Colores, Judy Kirk

Decolores, NFTD Men s #59 Most of the team has been determined and I am in process of making phone calls. Please continue to pray for clarity as I listen to Him. The theme Rejoice, it s your Choice reminds us all that we are to rejoice in all oflife s situations. We want to react always, in a way that is pleasing to God and is a positive influence for our loved ones. We are all guilty of reacting negatively in a difficult situation. In our team meetings and on the weekend, we will be looking at God s word on why we are to rejoice at all times. We are having heads meetings to build relationships and to get everything set up for the team meetings and the weekend this October 4th through 7th, for God to show up powerfully. Please consider sponsorship if you have not already. You will bless a Christian friend with a positive life altering weekend. The Pescadore Orientation (PO) will be on August 25th at Victory Fellowship Church (VFC) from 9:00 to 11:30. It is encouraged that everyone that has not been to a PO in the last two years go to this PO. For the new pescadores that have never been to a PO, it is an opportunity to learn the history of Tres Dias and the behind the scenes serving that occurs to bring the weekend together. Blessings, Scott Farney, Rector #59 The theme for the weekend is: Rejoice, it s your choice. The weekend scripture is: This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. 118:24 The song for the weekend is: This is the Day by Planetshakers Psalm
NFTD Women s #59 Dear Tres Dias Family What a journey this is!!! Hearing God speak and trusting Him with the details of Women's weekend #59 has been both a delight and a stretch for me!! I have heard Him ask me the question "Where are you My Beloved" so many times as I pray and talk to so many of you. The heart question of the weekend is so full of potential answers and yet we always seek to be within His will with those answers. The greatest commandment is to love the Lord God with ALL our heart, mind, soul and strength - "Where are you My Beloved" in reference to that commandment? The second is like the first to love our neighbors as ourselves - "Where are you My Beloved" in that one as well? I can't answer those questions for you only for myself. Rest assured though He knows the answers before He ask and is waiting for the conversation with you. His desire is to be the answer for you as you move to fulfill those commandments!! Many have received their call to join the team of weekend #59 and I still have a few more to go but we are getting close. I want to encourage everyone to earnestly seek the Lord about sponsoring and filling up the candidate list with overflow!!! Sponsorship is essential for the community to progress!! Sponsor candidates, attend the Sequelas, come to the PO on August 25th, make palanca and pray for the upcoming team and candidates!!! It takes everyone to do their part to make the beautiful puzzle of Tres Dias complete!!! We need you even if you are not serving on the campground!!! Blessings, Chris Farney, Rector Women's NFTD #59 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17
Sequelas The June Sequela was a fun time for all who attended. The weather was great, and the food was plentiful.

Sponsorship Who should I Sponsor for Tres Dias? Just as Christ meets you at your point of need, so Tres Dias is an encounter designed for those who desire to be strengthened in their faith and to experience many facets of God s amazing grace. Tres Dias is for Christians of all denominations. It is especially gratifying for those who are in roles of leadership within the church. There are separate weekends for men and women. If they are married, the husband must attend first. Wives usually attend two weeks later. Each attendee must be sponsored by someone who has previously attended a Tres Dias or similar weekend! Therefore, recognizing that TRES DIAS is a Christian movement, each Candidate must be a professing Christian who has a desire for a closer relationship with Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Candidates shall be accepted from all Christian denominations as well as independent Christian works. Each Candidate shall be at least 21 years of age with the exception of a married couple where one spouse is over 21 and one is under 21. In such case, the under age spouse shall also be accepted for any Weekend that the 21 year old spouse would be eligible to attend. Each Candidate may not have previously experienced (completed) a TRES DIAS Weekend or a similar Weekend recognized as equivalent by TRES DIAS. By acceptance of the written invitation, the Candidate agrees to abide by TRES DIAS Weekend policy concerning dress and the use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs as adopted by the Secretariat from time to time and as stated in the invitation letter. Please be in prayer now, for anyone who you feel Daddy God is leading you to Sponsor for the Spring Weekend. We are not about filling the seats we are about helping others to deepen their relationship with Daddy God, By leading them through an encounter with Jesus! If you have any questions or concerns or are not sure if the person you have in mind is ready. Please feel free to contact us Annie 850-284-1657 or Wendell 850-284-1965 We are always open and available to you!!! Thank you, Wendell and Annie Tillman NFTD, Pre-Weekend Couple
