Dear brothers and sisters, Last February 2012, 6500 SFC members all over the world "proclaimed the greatness of the Lord" (Luke 1:46) in Bohol, Philippines. Amongst them were 350 delegates from the Middle East, South East Asia, Europe, Oceania, Greater Mekong Area, and North America. It was indeed the biggest foreign delegation in SFC ICON history. As we enter another milestone and celebrate two decades of SFC, we invite you to experience God's greatness once again at our 20th SFC International Conference in Manila, Philippines on February 15-17, 2013. Our 20th ICON is entitled WITNESS, as inspired by our communitys theme for next year which is Obey and Witness! (Do whatever He tells you. John 2:5) To mark this momentous occasion, we will have weeklong activities starting February 11, 2013. In line with this, we present to you the 20th SFC ICON Packages for foreign delegates. We also included essential information that can help you prepare for this big event. We highly encourage and invite all SFC foreign countries to send their delegations and be part of this grand celebration. Deadline for foreign registration is January 11, 2013. See you in Manila!

In Christ,
