I was told that we need an English prayer from Brentwood Baptist
Church. Please let me know if you have a pastor already, or you still
need to find one from my church? We are ready to help and support this
event. I'm going to the meeting tonight to see what we can do.

David:

I found Scott Harris's name as a speaker from the meeting minutes. Is
his role only to lead an open prayer? Yesterday I just knew that he is
out of town now. He is finding someone instead of him. I'm not sure if
he can find a pastor at such short time. I'll let you know once I hear
from him.
